【 摘 要 】

Multiparticle azimuthal correlations are nowadays utilized regularly by all major collaborations worldwide which are analyzing heavy-ion data. Most notably, correlation techniques are used to explore the collective properties of the new state of matter, the Quark-Gluon Plasma, by performing measurements of anisotropic flow phenomenon in heavy-ion collisions. In these proceedings we highlight the theory of multiparticle azimuthal correlations and summarize briefly the most important recent physical results obtained with them. Some unresolved problems and next future steps in their development are discussed as well.
