Theoretical analysis of pT spectra of light-flavor hadrons in p + p collisions at s = 7 TeV under differential and single freeze-out scenarios

We present the published data of ALICE at mid-rapidity region ([Formula: see text]) to study the [Formula: see text] spectra of light-flavor hadrons in different charged-particle multiplicities ([Formula: see text]) for [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] TeV. We parametrize the [Formula: see text] spectra of different hadrons such as pion ([Formula: see text]), kaon ([Formula: see text]), [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]), [Formula: see text], proton ([Formula: see text]), lambda ([Formula: see text]), cascade ([Formula: see text]) and omega ([Formula: see text]) using Tsallis distribution. We perform this analysis by considering both differential and single freeze-out scenarios. In the differential freeze-out scenario, both the Tsallis parameters [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] increase with charged multiplicities for most of the particles. This implies that the multipartonic interactions increase the multiplicities in [Formula: see text] collisions and it brings the system towards thermal equilibrium. Here we observe that both [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] have different trends with different masses of particles. The parameters [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are higher for massive particles (except for multistrange baryons) in comparison to lighter ones, which supports the differential freeze-out scenario and suggests that massive particles freeze-out earlier from the system. In the case of single freeze-out scenario, the value of parameter [Formula: see text] has a little variation with multiplicity and the parameter [Formula: see text] increases with multiplicity. This implies that the degree of thermalization remains similar for the events of different multiplicity classes.
