Geometrical scaling in high energy collisions and its breaking

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2013-04-09 v1

Abstract

We analyze geometrical scaling (GS) in Deep Inelstic Scattering at HERA and in pp collisions at the LHC energies and in NA61/SHINE experiment. We argue that GS is working up to relatively large Bjorken x0.1x \sim 0.1. This allows to study GS in negative pion multiplicity pTp_{\rm T} distributions at NA61/SHINE energies where clear sign of scaling violations is seen with growing rapidity when one of the colliding partons has Bjorekn x0.1x \ge 0.1.
