Abstract.

We analyze the calculation method of the coefficient of the jet azimuthal anisotropy without reconstruction of the nuclear reaction plane, considering the higher order correlators between the azimuthal position of the jet axis and the angles of the particles not incorporated in the jet. The reliability of this technique in the real physical situation under LHC conditions is illustrated.
