Centrality in small systems at the LHC energies and beyond

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2017-12-15 v2

Abstract

Experimental observations at the LHC of the collective effects in small systems such as pppp--scattering suggest introduction of the centrality variable to classify collision events similar to the case of nucleus--nucleus collisions. We discuss this issue with reference to the existing measurements at the LHC and the asymptotical energy region.
