Recently, the PHENIX Collaboration has published second-and third-harmonic Fourier coefficients v 2 and v 3 for midrapidity (|η| < 0.35) charged hadrons in 0%-5% central p + Au, d + Au, and 3 He +Au collisions at √ s NN = 200 GeV, utilizing three sets of two-particle correlations for two detector combinations with different pseudorapidity acceptance [Acharya et al., Phys. Rev. C 105, 024901 (2022)]. This paper extends these measurements of v 2 to all centralities in p + Au, d + Au, and 3 He +Au collisions, as well as p + p collisions, as a function of transverse momentum (p T ) and event multiplicity. The kinematic dependence of v 2 is quantified as the ratio R of v 2 between the two detector combinations as a function of event multiplicity for 0.5 < p T < 1 and 2 < p T < 2.5 GeV/c. A multiphase-transport (AMPT) model can reproduce the observed v 2 in most-central to midcentral d + Au and 3 He +Au collisions. However, the AMPT model systematically overestimates the measurements in p + p, p + Au, and peripheral d + Au and 3 He +Au collisions, indicating a higher nonflow contribution in the AMPT model than in the experimental data. The AMPT model fails to describe the observed R for 0.5 < p T < 1 GeV/c, but there is qualitative agreement with the measurements for 2 < p T < 2.5 GeV/c.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
