Multiple parton interactions in a single proton-proton collision are expected to play an important role for many observables at LHC. To a large part their phenomenological description relies on rather simple and physically intuitive…
The CMS data on the multiplicity distributions are compared with the results from the 8.142 version of the PYTHIA MC event generator with the default tuning and realistic impact parameter profile. The agreement is reasonable. However, it…
Event classifiers based either on the charged-particle multiplicity or the event shape have been extensively used in proton-proton (pp) collisions by the ALICE collaboration at the LHC. The use of these tools became very instrumental since…
