One-sentence summaries Innovations in the observation of broad-band surface waves allow the inference of 3D azimuthal anisotropy within the crust, lithosphere, and asthenosphere beneath the western US at geological length-scales, which provides new constraints on crustal and mantle deformation

waveform modeling of the split shear waves for paths beneath the Caribbean requires azimuthal anisotropy at the base of the mantle. Models with laterally coherent patterns of transverse isotropy with the hexagonal symmetry axis of the mineral phases tilted from the vertical by as much as 20- are consistent

(v8) harmonics upper limits on the magnitudes are reported. Anisotropic flow, an anisotropy of the particle azimuthal distribution in momentum space with respect to the reaction plane, is a sensitive tool in the quest for the quark-gluon plasma and the understanding of bulk properties of the system

The recent study of centrality and transverse momentum (pT) dependence of inclusive charged hardron elliptic anisotropy (v2) at midrapidity (|η | < 1.0) in Au+Au collision at sNN = 7.7, 11.5, 19.6, 27, and 39 GeV in STAR Beam Energy Scan program is presented. We show that the observed increase

The paper gives a detailed description of the technique for measuring azimuthal anisotropy which was suggested earlier by Vinnik, Kosarev & Makeyeva (1984) and used by Kind et ai. (1985). The technique is based on the observations of long-period converted phases like SKS. Additionally, we

A method for displaying prestack seismic data that highlights azimuthal anisotropy is shown. Observations of azimuthal anisotropy in prestack seismic data using this and other methods make it clear that azimuthal anisotropy is observed in all types of seismic data, land, marine and multicomponent

rapidities are shifted by the difference in beam rapidity between RHIC and SPS. Back-to-back jets emitted out-of-plane are found to be suppressed more if compared to those emitted in-plane, which is consistent with jet quenching. Using the scalar product method, we systematically compared azimuthal

Abstract. Recent differential measurements of elliptic flow are used to probe several hydrodynamic scaling predictions. Eccentricity scaling is observed for Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at √ sNN = 200 GeV, suggesting essentially complete thermalization of the high energy density matter produced in these collisions. An estimate of the speed of sound is also obtained from the eccentricity scaled elliptic flow. The predicted mass scaling is observed for particles with transverse kinetic energy KET up to ∼ 1 GeV. For KET values above ∼ 1 GeV, valence quark number scaling compatible with partonic degrees of freedom is observed.
