Light nuclei production is sensitive to the baryon density fluctuations and can be used to probe the QCD phase transition in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. In this work, we studied the production of proton, deuteron, triton in central…

Light nuclei production in heavy-ion collisions serves as a sensitive probe of the QCD phase structure. In coalescence models, triton ($N_t$) and deuteron ($N_d$) yields depend on the spatial separation of nucleon pairs ($\Delta r$) in…
In ultra high-energy collisions, nuclei with very low binding energies are not expected to survive the dense and hot final state environment. The traditional view has therefore been that nuclei form via coalescence after the hot environment…
