Using the nucleon coalescence Floor Mops - Mops model based on kinetic freeze-out nucleons from the 3D MUSIC+UrQMD and the 2D VISHNU hybrid model with a crossover equation of state, we study the multiplicity dependence of deuteron (d) and triton (t) production from central to peripheral Au+Au collisions at sNN= 7.7, 14.5, 19.6, 27, 39, 62.

4 and 200 GeV and Pb+Pb at sNN=2.76 TeV, respectively.It is found that the ratio NtNp/Nd2 of the proton yield Np, deuteron yield Nd and triton yield Nt exhibits a scaling behavior in its multiplicity dependence, i.e.

, decreasing monotonically with increasing charged-particle multiplicity.A similar multiplicity DR.FORMULATED PROBIOTICS MOOD scaling of this ratio is also found in the nucleon coalescence calculation based on kinetic freeze-out nucleons from a multiphase transport (AMPT) model.The scaling behavior of NtNp/Nd2 can be naturally explained by the interplay between the sizes of light nuclei and the nucleon emission source.We further argue that the multiplicity scaling of NtNp/Nd2 can be used to validate the production mechanism of light nuclei, and the collision energy dependence of this yield ratio can further serve as a baseline in the search for the QCD critical point in relativistic heavy-ion collisions.
