Description
I will present results for elliptic and triangular flow coefficients
v2 and v3 in Au+Au collisions at
sqrt(s) = 200A GeV using event-by-event 3+1D viscous hydrodynamic simulations. I will report on the effect of initial state fluctuations and finite viscosities on the flow coefficients v2 and v3 as functions of transverse momentum and pseudo-rapidity.
I will argue that simultaneous measurements of v2 and v3 can determine the shear viscosity-entropy ratio more precisely. I will also touch upon
recent calculations of v2 and v3 for the LHC heavy ion collisions.
