Abstract
The study of fluctuation in event-by-event mean transverse momentum (pT) is considered a useful tool to understand the dynamics of the system produced in the ultrarelativistic collisions. The measurement of skewness of pT can help in probing hydrodynamic behavior of the system and can be a direct way of observing initial-state fluctuations. Recent measurement of skewness of pT distribution as a function of average charged particle density in PbPb collisions at sNN = 5.02 TeV and XeXe collisions at sNN = 5.44 TeV recorded by ALICE is presented. For the baseline study, the analysis is also performed in pp collisions at s = 5.02 TeV. The measurements are compared to hydrodynamic model calculations and results from Monte Carlo event generators.
