The midrapidity transverse momentum (pt) distributions of the charged pions and kaons, protons, and antiprotons, measured by ALICE Collaboration at nine centrality groups of Xe+Xe collisions at (snn)1/2 = 5.44TeV, have been reproduced quite well using simultaneous (combined) minimum χ2 fits with the simple (non-consistent) as well as thermodynamically consistent Tsallis function with included transverse flow. The parameters T0, (βt), and q extracted in this work using both consistent and non-consistent Tsallis function with included transverse flow demonstrate the similar dependencies on collision centrality ((Npart)). The obtained non-extensivity parameter q values decrease systematically for all studied particle species with increasing Xe+Xe collision centrality, indicating an increase in degree of system thermalization with increasing centrality of heavy-ion collisions. The average transverse flow velocity demonstrates significantly different growth rates in regions (Npart) < 44 ± 5 and (Npart) > 44 ± 5, and parameter T0 stays constant within uncertainties in (Npart) > 44 ± 5 range in Xe+Xe collisions at (snn)1/2 = 5.44TeV. It is argued that (Npart)≈ 44 ± 5((dNch/dη)≈ 158 ± 20) could possibly be a threshold border value for a crossover transition from a dense hadronic state to the QGP phase (or mixed phase of QGP and hadrons) in Xe+Xe collisions at (snn)1/2 = 5.44TeV. Depletion (enhancement) of (p + p )/(π+ + π-) ratio at low pt (intermediate pt) has been observed in this work in Xe+Xe collisions at (snn)1/2 = 5.44TeV, which agrees with the similar results of ALICE Collaboration obtained recently in high-energy Xe+Xe and Pb + Pb collisions at the LHC. Analyzing and reflecting the extracted (βt) versus Npart and (p + p )/(π+ + π-) versus (dNch/dη) dependencies, we have verified that the depletion (enhancement) of baryon-to-meson ratio at low pt (intermediate pt) values with increasing (dNch/dη) is due to radial flow effects.
