Upper panel: Positively charged particle multiplicity distributions versus the azimuthal angle, $\phi$, in 30-40% central Au+Au collisions. The data are shown separately for $\eta>0$ and $\eta<0$. The magnetic polarities of the STAR magnet have been summed and the $p_{T}$ is integrated over the range $0.15<p_{T}<2$~GeV/$c$. The inverse of these distributions, properly normalized, were used to correct for the track efficiency versus $\phi$. Lower panel: Reconstructed event-plane azimuthal angle distributions in 30-40% central Au+Au collisions. Particles within $0.15 < p_{T} < 2$~GeV/$c$ from $\eta<0$ and $\eta>0$ were used separately to reconstruct the EP.

(Color online) Modulated sign correlations (msc) compared to the three-point correlator versus centrality for Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$= 200 GeV. Shown with triangles is the msc, Eq. 5. The systematic uncertainties will be shown in detail in Fig. 7. Diamonds and circles show the three-point correlator, Eq. 1, and the grey bars reflect the conditions of $\Delta p_{T}$ > 0.15 GeV/c and $\Delta\eta$ > 0.15 applied to the three-point correlator, to be discussed in the text. For comparison, the model calculation of THERMINATOR [21] is also shown.

(Color online) The msc split into 2 composite parts versus centrality for Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$= 200 GeV. Shaded areas represent the systematic uncertainty due to the event plane determination. For comparison with the $\Delta$msc term, we also put $−\nu_{2}/N$ and the model calculation of MEVSIM [24], to be described in the text.
