Description
Measurements of the properties of charged particle
production are presented from proton-proton collisions at different
centre-of-mass energies in the range of 0.9 to 13 TeV and compared to
various Monte Carlo event generator models. Furthermore particle
distributions sensitive to the underlying event in proton-proton
collisions have been measured and are compared to theoretical models.
The production properties of mesons and baryons are presented and
compared to predictions.
The effects of space-time geometry in the hadronization phase has been
studied in the context of Bose-Einstein correlations between charged
particles, for determining the size and shape of the source from which
particles are emitted and for interpreting of quark confinement
effects. Bose-Einstein correlation parameters are investigated in p-p
collisions at 900 GeV and 7 TeV, up to very high charged-particle
multiplicities.
