Abstract
The mission of relativistic heavy-ion collisions is to create an extremely hot and dense medium where the quarks and gluons become deconfined from their typical hadronic states. This unique state of matter is known as the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). The collective flow of the system plays a critical role in establishing the equation of state of the QGP. Among different orders of azimuthal flow, the second order elliptic flow receives keen attention and will be analyzed in the ultra-central collision centrality range. Various hydrodynamic simulations show that
