Description
Hadron correlations are important tools used to study the properties
of the medium produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions. We
present detailed measurements of flow harmonics $v_{2}$-$v_{6}$ via
di-hadron correlations in broad $p_{T}$, $\Delta\eta$ and centrality
ranges using the 2010 Pb+Pb data from ATLAS. These measurements are
compared to the corresponding values obtained via event-plane
measurements. This result provides new insights on the origin of the
long range "ridge" structure over broad $\pT$ ranges. Measurements of
the dipolar flow ($v_{1}$) associated with initial dipole asymmetry as
function of $p_{T}$ and centrality are also presented. Finally, the
results of correlations between harmonic planes of different orders
measured via two-plane and three-plane correlations are also
discussed.
