The ALICE collaboration recently reported the mean transverse momentum as a function of charged-particle multiplicity for different pp-collisions classes defined based on the "jettiness" of the event. The event "jettiness" is quantified…
This paper presents the first measurements of $\Xi$ and $\Omega$ hyperon yields at the highest multiplicities reached in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV. This measurement exploits the high-multiplicity pp collisions collected by ALICE…
The Pierre Auger Observatory has revealed a significant challenge in air shower physics: a discrepancy between the simulated and observed muon content in cosmic-ray interactions, known as the 'Muon Puzzle'. This issue stems from a lack of…
We extend the recently presented, fully exclusive, next-to-leading-order accurate event generator for the simulation of massless neutral- and charged-current deep inelastic scattering (DIS) to the case of incoming neutrinos. The generator…

In the standard pQCD picture particles are produced via the parton jet fragmentation process. However, there are also other production mechanisms like higher twist (HT) processes. A usual example of a HT process is a direct production of an…
We perform a number of improvements to the previous AKK extraction of fragmentation functions for $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $p/\bar{p}$, $K_S^0$ and $\Lambda/\bar{\Lambda}$ particles at next-to-leading order. Inclusive hadron production…
Proton-Proton ($pp$) collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are simulated in order to study events with a high local density of charged particles produced in narrow pseudorapidty windows of $\Delta\eta$ = 0.1, 0.2, and 0.5. The $pp$…
STAR has measured a variety of strange particle species in p + p collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 200 GeV. These high statistics data are ideal for comparing to existing leading- and next-to-leading order perturbative QCD (pQCD) models.…
The Fragmentation Functions is one of the non-perturbative components of the QCD factorization theorem. They represents the probability of a parton carrying a fraction z of momentum to form into a particular kind of hadron. In this work, we…

We present a computational investigation of a problem of hadron collisions from recent years, that of baryon anticorrelations. This is an experimental dearth of baryons near other baryons in phase space, not seen upon examining numerical…

A new method to extract information from the pp data is proposed. The approach is based on the use of the event structure variables: sphericity and spherocity, to split the data into enhanced soft and hard processes samples corresponding to…
The estimation of anti-baryon to baryon ratio is considered to be a useful tool for studying baryon number transport in pp, pA and AA collisions. For this study, the Pythia event generator with various tunes is used to measure the…
