Based on PYTHIA6.428, event-by-event fluctuations of the mean transverse momentum in proton- proton collisions at sqrt_s = 7 TeV are studied using several measures of the fluctuations. The study compares results of the fluctuations for…
The Pythia event generator is used in several contexts to study hadron and lepton interactions, notably $pp$ and $p\bar{p}$ collisions. In this article we extend the hadronic modelling to encompass the collision of a wide range of hadrons…
We present the results for the evolution of transverse momentum spectra for the jetty and underlying parts of events as a function of multiplicity in pp collisions at 13 TeV measured at midrapidity ($\left|\eta\right|<0.8$) using PYTHIA8…
In this work, we propose a tool to reveal the origin of the collective-like phenomena observed in proton--proton collisions. We exploit the fundamental difference between the underlying mechanisms, color reconnection (CR) and hydrodynamics,…

At the LHC Multiple Parton Interactions will represent an important feature of the minimum bias and of the underlying event and will give important contributions in many channels of interest for the search of new physics. Different numbers…
We examine the role played in double parton interactions (DPI) by the parton--parton correlations originating from perturbative QCD parton splittings. Also presented are the results of the numerical analysis of the integrated DPI cross…
In hadronization models with color recombination, partons are allowed to regroup into color singlet structures that are different from those determined by the perturbative parton shower. This aims at modeling the possibility that soft…
One of the most poorly understood phenomenon in hadron collisions, is the so called multiple parton interaction (MPI). Apart from one quark or gluon each from each colliding proton, additional quarks or gluons can interact as well, and…
Measurements of flow coefficients and correlations between different types of particles are used to characterise the properties of the quark-gluon plasma created in heavy-ion collisions. Moreover, these precise measurements became a key…
The high rates of multi-parton interactions at the LHC can provide a unique opportunity to study the multi-parton structure of the hadron. To this purpose high energy collisions of protons with nuclei are particularly suitable. The rates of…
High multiplicity final states of small collision systems, such as proton-proton or proton-nucleus, exhibit some signatures which resemble features associated with quark-gluon plasma (QGP) formation in heavy-ion collisions, e.g., collective…
Collective effects are observed in high-multiplicity pp events, similar to the signals traditionally attributed to the formation of a Quark Gluon Plasma in heavy ion collisions. In core--corona models it is assumed that a partial plasma…
Small system collectivity observed at the LHC energies along with enhancement of strangeness makes high-multiplicity proton+proton (pp) collisions very interesting in order to look for QGP-like features, usually found in heavy-ion…
The study and understanding of the details of proton-proton collisions is important since they are the benchmark for the comparison with heavy ion results. In the present work we have studied the $\Delta\eta\Delta\phi$ correlations as a…

We present the development of a new colour reconnection model in PYTHIA where the full spacetime separation between partons constrains the reconnection probability throughout the final-state radiative shower. Building upon previous ideas of…
We present an updated version of the QCD-based colour reconnection model in PYTHIA8, where we constrain the range in impact parameter for which reconnections are allowed. In this way, we can introduce more realistic colour reconnections in…
