Fig.8: Elliptic flow as determined from the fits to the q distributions in different centrality bins.
Errors are statistical. pt range for q is 0.1 - 2 GeV/c, eta range for q is -1.3 - 1.3.
The circles are from the standard method with random subevents. For the squares, all the centralities were fit separately. For the triangles, centrality bins 2 to 8 were fit with the same value of the non-flow parameter.

Fig.13: Measured elliptic flow versus centrality for Au + Au collisions at sqrt(sNN) = 130 GeV.
The circles
show the conventional v2 with estimated systematic uncertainty due to
non-flow, the stars show the 4th-order cumulant v2 from the generating
function, the crosses show the conventional v2 from quarter-events, and
the squares show the 4th-order cumulant v2 from
the four-subevent method. Errors are statistical except that of v2 from the conventional method.

Fig. 15. Reconstructed v2 versus pt from the conventional method(circles), from the second-order cumulant method(triangles), and from the fourth-order cumualnt method (stars), in eight centrality bins.
Eta range for the plot is -1.3-1.3. Errors are statistical.

Data are from E877 at the AGS (squares), NA49 at the SPS (circles), and STAR at RHIC
(stars). The AGS and SPS data have been obtained by conventional flow
analysis. The STAR measurements are at sqrt(sNN) = 130 GeV, and
correspond to the final corrected elliptic flow based on 4th-order
cumulants (integrated over pt 0.1-2 GeV/c, eta -1.3-1.3,
corrected for the b fluctuation), and we assume dN/dy = 1.15 dN/d&eta.
The horizontal shaded bands indicate the hydrodynamic limits for different beam
energies. The hydro band range for Sqrt(SNN) = 130 GeV is
0.19 - 0.21, and for Sqrt(SNN) = 17 GeV is 0.22 - 0.235.
