We show that fluctuations of the fireball shape in the longitudinal direction generate nontrivial rapidity correlations that depend not only on the rapidity difference, y_{1} - y_{2}, but also on the rapidity sum, y_{1} + y_{2}. This is explicitly demonstrated in a simple wounded nucleon model, and the general case is also discussed. We show how to extract different components of the fluctuating fireball shape from the measured two-particle rapidity correlation function. The experimental possibility of studying the longitudinal initial conditions in heavy-ion and proton-proton collisions is emphasized.

Rapidity dependence of mean transverse momentum fluctuation and decorrelation in baryon-dense medium
Mean transverse momentum fluctuations in baryon-rich matter are driven by energy and baryon density variations, remain robust to baryon diffusion, and show splitting between protons and antiprotons.

The shape of differential radial flow $v_0(p_T)$, not its zero-crossing, carries physical information
The shape of v0(pT), not its zero-crossing, encodes physical information about radial flow because centrality and normalization choices only shift the curve vertically without changing its form.

Study of the hottest droplet of fluid through correlations and fluctuations of collective variables
The thesis uses event-by-event fluctuations and correlations of collective flow and mean transverse momentum to propose new probes of the initial state, explain the ATLAS [pT]-variance fall, and constrain nuclear deformation.
