Charged-particle multiplicities in proton–proton collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 0.9$$ s = 0.9 to 8 TeV

Abstract: A detailed study of pseudorapidity densities and multiplicity distributions of primary charged particles produced in proton-proton collisions, at √ s = 0.9, 2.36, 2.76, 7 and 8 TeV, in the pseudorapidity range |η| < 2, was carried out using the ALICE detector. Measurements were obtained for three event classes: inelastic, non-single diffractive and events with at least one charged particle in the pseudorapidity interval |η| < 1. The use of an improved track-counting algorithm combined with ALICE's measurements… Show more

“…In the tails, the CMS data are systematically lower, due to normalization. This behavior was also observed when comparing CMS distributions to those obtained in a narrower pseudorapidity range where only SPD tracklets are used [4] as shown in the distribution for |η| < 1.0 in Fig. 6.…”

“…This analysis uses only clusters from the inner layer of the SPD to provide the largest pseudorapidity coverage for particle detection. Alternatively, clusters from the two SPD layers together with the primary vertex can be combined to form tracklets [4], allowing to select primary particles with very high efficiency. The charged-particle multiplicity is then estimated by counting the number of tracklets.…”
