Sažetak
Recently, the PHENIX Collaboration has published second- and third-harmonic Fourier coefficients v2 and v3 for midrapidity (|η|<0.35) charged hadrons in 0\%--5\% central p+Au, d+Au, and 3He+Au collisions at sNN−−−√=200 GeV utilizing three sets of two-particle correlations for two detector combinations with different pseudorapidity acceptance [Phys. Rev. C {;\bf 105};, 024901 (2022)]. This paper extends these measurements of v2 to all centralities in p+Au, d+Au, and 3He+Au collisions, as well as p+p collisions, as a function of transverse momentum (pT) and event multiplicity. The kinematic dependence of v2 is quantified as the ratio R of v2 between the two detector combinations as a function of event multiplicity for 0.5<pT<1 and 2<pT<2.5 GeV/c. A multiphase-transport (AMPT) model can reproduce the observed v2 in most-central to midcentral d+Au and 3He+Au collisions. However, the AMPT model systematically overestimates the measurements in p+p, p+Au, and peripheral d+Au and 3He+Au collisions, indicating a higher nonflow contribution in AMPT than in the experimental data. The AMPT model fails to describe the observed R for 0.5<pT<1 GeV/c, but there is qualitative agreement with the measurements for 2<pT<2.5 GeV/c.
