Strange particle collectivity in pPb and PbPb
Abstract: The collective behavior of $\mathrm{K^0_S}$ and $\Lambda/\bar{\Lambda}$ strange hadrons is studied using the scalar-product and multiparticle correlation methods. Proton-lead (pPb) collisions at 8.16 TeV and lead-lead collisions at 5.02 TeV are studied. The data samples were collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. Nonflow effects in the pPb collisions are investigated by a subevent cumulant analysis and by including a veto on events where a jet with $p_{\mathrm{T}} > $ 20 GeV is observed. For the first time, the collectivity of strange particles is observed in proton-lead collisions. A comparison of the proton-lead and lead-lead results for both strange particles and charged-hadrons is used to show how flow fluctuations are affected by system size.

Summary
In summary, the elliptic azimuthal anisotropies $v_2$ values have been measured using the scalar-product and the multiparticle Q-cumulant methods for identified ${\mathrm{K^0_S}}$, $\Lambda$, and charged hadrons in PpPb collisions at $ {\sqrt {\smash [b]{s_{_{\mathrm {NN}}}}}} = $ 5.02 TeV and high-multiplicity pPb collisions at $ {\sqrt {\smash [b]{s_{_{\mathrm {NN}}}}}} = $ 8.16 TeV. Nonflow effects are studied for the 4-, 6- particle cumulant results. The large difference between the 4- and 6-particle correlation results can be explained by jet-related nonflow correlations, which can be suppressed by rejecting events with a jet ${p_{\mathrm{T}}}$ greater than 20 GeV. Another method for reducing short-range nonflow correlation, the subevent cumulant method, is also studied. The difference for the amount of nonflow suppression observed with the two methods is attributed to the effect of event plane decorrelation on the subevent method. For the first time, the collective multiparticle correlations of identified strange particles have been observed in pPb collisions. No obvious particle species dependence of the fluctuations in the $v_2$ values arising from the initial-state geometry is observed for either the PpPb or pPb systems. These flow fluctuation are observed to be larger in pPb collisions compared to PpPb collisions.
