AbstractResonance production in proton–proton collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 7$$ s = 7 TeV and 13 TeV have been investigated using a Pythia 8 event generator within the framework of microscopic processes including color reconnection and rope hadronization. Specifically, the observable effects of different modes of color reconnections on the ratio of yields of mesonic and baryonic resonances with respect to their stable counterpart have been explored as a function of mean charged particle multiplicity. A suppression in the ratio is observed as a function of the mean number of charged particles for mesonic resonances. The $$\phi /\mathrm {K}$$ ϕ / K and $${\phi /\pi }$$ ϕ / π ratios show an enhancement for high-multiplicity events due to enhanced production of strange quarks via the microscopic process of rope hadronization in the partonic phase. The mechanism of the hadronization of color ropes together with the quark–gluon plasma (QCD)-based color reconnection of partons predicted an enhancement in the ratio for baryonic resonances to non-resonance baryons having similar quark content. The yield ratios of resonances are found to be independent of the collision energy and strongly dependent on event activity.

Abstract The production rates and the transverse momentum distribution of strange hadrons at mid-rapidity ($$\left| y\right| < 0.5$$y<0.5) are measured in proton-proton collisions at $$\sqrt{s}$$s = 13 TeV as a function of the charged particle multiplicity, using the ALICE detector at the LHC. The production rates of $$\mathrm{K}^{0}_{S}$$KS0, $$\Lambda $$Λ, $$\Xi $$Ξ, and $$\Omega $$Ω increase with the multiplicity faster than what is reported for inclusive charged particles. The increase is found to be more pronounced for hadrons with a larger strangeness content. Possible auto-correlations between the charged particles and the strange hadrons are evaluated by measuring the event-activity with charged particle multiplicity estimators covering different pseudorapidity regions. When comparing to lower energy results, the yields of strange hadrons are found to depend only on the mid-rapidity charged particle multiplicity. Several features of the data are reproduced qualitatively by general purpose QCD Monte Carlo models that take into account the effect of densely-packed QCD strings in high multiplicity collisions. However, none of the tested models reproduce the data quantitatively. This work corroborates and extends the ALICE findings on strangeness production in proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV.

Forward-backward multiplicity correlations have been used to study hadron production mechanisms in electron-positron, proton-proton and more recently in leadlead collisions. The experimental results on this correlations and its comparison to different models reveals an incomplete agreement. In this work, we present an study of forward backward multiplicity correlations in proton-proton collisions using PYTHIA event generator, at LHC energies. Detailed analysis is presented in the case of soft and hard QCD processes, incorporating color reconnection model as part of hadronization mechanism and multiple parton interactions effects in the correlations. Our results and its comparison to available experimental data suggest that this kind of correlations are great tools to characterize the events and gives the possibility to disentangle phenomena in hard and soft QCD processes.

An asymptotic solution to the QCD parton branching equation is derived using the method of Laplace transformation and saddle point approximation. The distribution is applied to charged particle multiplicity distributions in proton-proton collisions at √s = 0.9, 2.36, and 7 TeV for |ƞ| < 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.4, and 8 TeV for |ƞ| < 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, as well as 13 TeV data for |ƞ| < 0.8 and 2.5.
