Collective Flow and Viscosity in Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions
We review collective flow, its anisotropies, and its event-to-event fluctuations in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, as well as the extraction of the specific shear viscosity of quark–gluon plasma from collective flow data collected in heavy-ion collision experiments at RHIC and the LHC. We emphasize the similarities between the Big Bang of our universe and the Little Bangs created in heavy-ion collisions.

Debate on the current understanding of high-energy heavy-ion collisions
We present a debate on the picture of high-energy heavy-ion collisions. Based on conventional wisdom the different stages of the collision and properties of the medium are described. The panel is asked to discuss plausible results which will either verify or unambiguously falsify the outlined picture or some aspects of it.

Event-plane flow analysis without nonflow effects
The event-plane method, which is widely used to analyze anisotropic flow in nucleus-nucleus collisions, is known to be biased by nonflow effects, especially at high p{sub t}. Various methods (cumulants, Lee-Yang zeros) have been proposed to eliminate nonflow effects, but their implementation is tedious, which has limited their application so far. In this article, we show that the Lee-Yang-zeroes method can be recast in a form similar to the standard event-plane analysis. Nonflow correlations are strongly suppressed by using the information from the length of the flow vector, in addition to the event-plane angle. This opens the way to improved analyses of elliptic flow and azimuthally sensitive observables at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and the Large Hadron Collider.
