contents The light nuclei yields and yield ratios, as sensitive probes of the QCD phase transition, have been precisely measured at various collision energies.However, due to limited detector acceptance, the full $p_{\rm T}$ integral yield often requires extrapolation of the measured transverse momentum spectra to the unmeasured low-$p_{\rm T}$ region via functional fitting.Simulations with the AMPT-HC transport model and an after-burner coalescence approach indicate a significant low-$p_{\rm T}$ enhancement in peripheral collisions or forward rapidities, primarily originating from spectator nucleons.Consequently, conventional extrapolations tend to underestimate the true light nuclei yields.
