Description
High-precision measurements of flow coefficients (n = 1 - 4) for protons, deuterons and tritons relative to the first-order spectator plane have been performed in Au+Au collisions at = 2.4 GeV with the High-Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer (HADES) at the SIS18/GSI. Flow coefficients are studied as a function of transverse momentum p and rapidity y over a large region of phase-space and for several classes of collision centrality. A clear mass hierarchy, as expected by relativistic hydrodynamics, is found for the slope of , d/dy| where y is the scaled rapidity, and for at mid-rapidity. Scaling with the number of nucleons is observed for the p dependence of and at mid-rapidity, which is indicative for nuclear coalescence as the main process responsible for light nuclei formation. is found to scale with the initial eccentricity , while scales with and . The multi-differential high-precision data on , , , and provides important constraints on the equation-of-state of compressed baryonic matter.
