Abstract:

This paper summarizes the analysis methods and procedures employed for the STAR measurements of $v_2$ and $v_3$ [and their uncertainties] in the p+Au, d+Au and $^3$He+Au collisions at \TopE. The analysis method employs two-particle correlators in rapidity range $|\eta|<$0.9 via different rapidity gap. The nonflow is evaluated with four established non-flow mitigation methods that use minimum-bias \pp collisions as a reference. The v2 is found to be system and centrality dependent while v3 is weakly depends on the system and centrality. Such measurements are compared with several hydro-calculations and indicate that sub-nucleon fluctuations play an important role on initial geometry of small system
