abstract
Azimuthal anisotropy is a key observation made in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. This phenomenon has played a crucial role in the development of the field over the last two decades. In addition to its interest for studying the quark-gluon plasma, which was the original motivation, it is sensitive to the properties of incoming nuclei, in particular to the nuclear deformation and to the nuclear skin. The azimuthal anisotropy is therefore of crucial importance when relating low-energy nuclear structure to high-energy nuclear collisions. This article is an elementary introduction to the various observables used in order to characterize azimuthal anisotropy, which go under the names of $v_2\{2\}$, $v_3\{2\}$, $v_2\{4\}$, etc. The intended audience is primarily physicists working in the field of nuclear structure.

Thermal and geometric normal modes of spectral fluctuations in heavy-ion collisions
Rotated PCA of simulated Pb+Pb spectra separates spectral fluctuations into a coherent thermal mode that fully explains v0(pT) and a double-node geometric mode that drives the low-pT sign change of v02(pT).

Explaining higher-order correlations between elliptic and triangular flow
Mixed harmonic cumulants of elliptic and triangular flow obey simple ratios set by reaction-plane elliptic flow, yielding new predictions for 10-particle cumulants.

Benchmarking nuclear matrix elements of $0\nu\beta\beta$ decay with high-energy nuclear collisions
Simulations show that flow observables in ultra-central 150Nd+150Nd collisions have Pearson correlations up to |r|=0.93 with the 0νββ nuclear matrix element, proposing collider data as a benchmark for nuclear theory.

Nuclear Physics Confronts Relativistic Collisions Of Isobars
RHIC isobar data are explained by different shapes of 96Ru and 96Zr, with 96Zr showing a large octupole deformation, so nuclear structure uncertainty, not the magnetic field, dominates the observed ratios.
