Collisions between prolate uranium nuclei are used to study how particle production and azimuthal anisotropies depend on initial geometry in heavy-ion collisions. We report the two- and four-particle cumulants, $v_2\{2\}$ and $v_2\{4\}$, for charged hadrons from U+U collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 193 GeV and Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 200 GeV. Nearly fully overlapping collisions are selected based on the amount of energy deposited by spectators in the STAR Zero Degree Calorimeters (ZDCs). Within this sample, the observed dependence of $v_2\{2\}$ on multiplicity demonstrates that ZDC information combined with multiplicity can preferentially select different overlap configurations in U+U collisions. An initial-state model with gluon saturation describes the slope of $v_2\{2\}$ as a function of multiplicity in central collisions better than one based on Glauber with a two-component multiplicity model.

  1. Explaining higher-order correlations between elliptic and triangular flow

    nucl-th 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Higher-order v2-v3 cumulants reduce to expressions fixed by the mean elliptic flow from nuclear overlap geometry.

  2. Effectiveness of nonflow suppression using multi-particle correlators

    nucl-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Toy models show multi-particle correlators can increase rather than reduce deviation from true flow harmonics in small collision systems.

  3. The size of the quark-gluon plasma in ultracentral collisions: impact of initial density fluctuations on the average transverse momentum

    nucl-th 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Volume variation with multiplicity in ultracentral collisions is small when total entropy scales with nuclear mass number, as shown by relating it to initial density fluctuation profiles.
