Abstract

Light nuclei might be formed in heavy-ion collisions by the coalescence of produced (anti-)nucleons or transported nucleons. Due to their low binding energies, they are more likely to form at later stages of the hadronic fireball. In this proceedings, we report the transverse momentum and centrality dependence of elliptic (v₂) and triangular (v₃) flow of d, t, and ³He in Au+Au collisions at √s_NN = 14.6 -- 54.4 GeV. The mass number scaling of v₂(p_T) and v₃(p_T) of light nuclei is discussed. We also report the comparison of v₂(p_T) and v₃(p_T) of light nuclei with a transport-plus-coalescence model calculation.
