Description
Particle production and collective flow of identified hadrons over the $p_{\rm T}$ range from 0 to 6 GeV in high multiplicity events of proton-proton and proton-lead collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are investigated by Hydro-Coal-Frag model, which includes hydrodynamic models at low transverse momentum, quark recombination model at intermediate transverse momentum, and string fragmentation model at high transverse momentum. The Hydro-Coal-Frag model gives a good description of the transverse momentum ($p_{\rm T}$)-spectra and differential elliptic flow, $v_2(p_{\rm T})$, of pions kaons, and protons over the $p_{\rm T}$ range of 0 to 6 GeV. We also well reproduce the experimentally observed approximate NCQ scaling of hadrons $v_2$ at intermediate $p_{\rm T}$. We demonstrate that quark coalescence plays a crucial role in this process. Our results strongy hint the possible formation of quark-gluon plasma in high multiplicity p--p collision and p-Pb collisions at the LHC.
