Detail description

Keywords: Flow, Flow vector fluctuations, pT-dependent flow vector fluctuations, Pb-Pb collisions, 5.02 TeV

$\langle \cos 4[\Psi_2(p_T^a)-\Psi_2(p_T^t)]\rangle$ is a direct probe of flow angle fluctuations. The observable is obtained from the ratio of four-particle correlations.
