Description
Various measurements on long-range correlation among produced particles from small collision systems indicate that there are collective flow phenomena in these systems. Previously, PHENIX published elliptic and triangular flow results in $p$+Au, $d$+Au, and $^{3}$He+Au collisions of different initial geometry which are well described by hydrodynamics. A new independent analysis has been performed using the two-particle correlation method and obtained consistent elliptic and triangular flow with the previous results. In addition, the analysis is extended to various detector combinations to understand non-flow effects and longitudinal decorrelations, both of which can affect flow measurements. In this presentation, new PHENIX results of elliptic and triangular flow in $p$/$d$/$^{3}$He+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200~\mathrm{GeV}$ will be presented, and the kinematic dependence will be discussed.
