Abstract
It is shown that defining a suitable saturation momentum , the distributions of pp and AA collisions for any centrality and energy depend only on for . For different projectiles, targets and centralities, the corresponding -lines present small differences for . For , the higher the energy or the larger the size of the participant nuclei, the larger suppression present the respective spectra. The integrated spectrum gives a fraction of the hard multiplicity in the range from 9% for pp at 0.9 TeV to 2% for Pb-Pb central collisions at 2.76 TeV.
