Abstract

Among the most iconic results of Run-1 and Run-2 of the LHC is the observation of enhanced production of (multi-)strange to non-strange particles, gradually rising from low-multiplicity to high-multiplicity pp or p–Pb collisions and reaching values close to those measured in peripheral Pb–Pb collisions [1]. The observed behaviour cannot be quantitatively reproduced by any of the available QCD-inspired MC generators. In this contribution two extensions of this study are presented: the measurement of Σ baryons and the first measurement of the full Probability Density Function (PDF) for KS0, Λ, Ξ− and Ω−, therefore extending the study of strangeness production beyond the average of the distribution. This novel method represents a unique opportunity to test the connection between charged and strange particle multiplicity production.
