The production of K∗(892)0 and ϕ(1020) in pp collisions at s√ = 8 TeV was measured using Run 1 data collected by the ALICE collaboration at the LHC. The pT-differential yields d2N/dydpT in the range 0<pT<20 GeV/c for K∗0 and 0.4<pT<16 GeV/c for ϕ have been measured at midrapidity, |y|<0.5. Moreover, improved measurements of the K∗(892)0 and ϕ(1020) at s√=7TeV are presented. The collision energy dependence of pT distributions, pT-integrated yields and particle ratios in inelastic pp collisions are examined. The results are also compared with different collision systems. The values of the particle ratios are found to be similar to those measured at other LHC energies. In pp collisions a hardening of the particle spectra is observed with increasing energy, but at the same time it is also observed that the relative particle abundances are independent of the collision energy. The pT-differential yields of K∗0 and ϕ in pp collisions at s√=8 TeV are compared with the expectations of different Monte Carlo event generators.
The physics goal of the strong interaction program of the NA61/SHINE experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) is to study the phase diagram of hadronic matter by a scan of particle production in collisions of nuclei with various sizes at a set of energies covering the SPS energy range. This paper presents differential inclusive spectra of transverse momentum, transverse mass and rapidity of π− mesons produced in central 40Ar+45Sc collisions at beam momenta of 13A, 19A, 30A, 40A, 75A and 150A Ge V /c. Energy and system size dependence of parameters of these distributions – mean transverse mass, the inverse slope parameter of transverse mass spectra, width of the rapidity distribution and mean multiplicity – are presented and discussed. Furthermore, the dependence of the ratio of the mean number of produced pions to the mean number of wounded nucleons on the collision energy was derived. The results are compared to predictions of several models.
