If the matter produced in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions reaches thermal equilibrium, its subsequent evolution follows the laws of ideal fluid dynamics. We show that general predictions can be made on this basis alone, irrespective of the details of the hydrodynamical model. We derive several scaling rules for momentum spectra and anisotropic flow (in particular the elliptic flow, v2, and the hexadecupole flow, v4) of identified particles. Comparison with existing data is briefly discussed, and qualitative predictions are made for LHC.

  1. Enhanced hydrodynamic predictions for $v_{02}(p_T)$

    nucl-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Ideal hydrodynamics plus a v2-fitted correction predicts v02(pT): a high-pT decrease for charged hadrons, meson-baryon splitting, and a non-monotonic proton v02 in mid-central Pb+Pb.

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

    nucl-th 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

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