Xe+Xe collision at relativistic energies may provide us with a partonic system whose size is approximately in between those produced by p + p and Pb+Pb collisions. The experimental results on anisotropic flow in Xe+Xe and Pb+Pb collisions should provide us with an opportunity to study the system size dependence of v(2). In the present work, we have used a multiphase transport model to calculate charged particles' v(2) for Xe+Xe collisions at root s(NN) = 5.44 TeV. We have also tried to demonstrate the number of constituent quark, N-q, and m(T) scaling of the elliptic flow. We find that n(q) scaling of v(2) is not observed for the identified hadrons. The v(2) results from Xe+Xe collisions have also been compared to Pb+Pb collisions at root s(NN) = 5.02 TeV. We find that flow of charged particles in (50-60)% central collisions for xenon nuclei is almost 30% less than particle flow developed in lead ion collisions, implying the important role the system size plays in the development of particle collective motion in relativistic heavy ion collisions.
