Description
The enhanced strangeness production in high multiplicity proton-proton (pp) and proton-lead (p--Pb) collisions w.r.t. low multiplicity ones is a well established experimental observation. The origin of the enhancement can be investigated in various ways. One approach is to compare strange particle production in jet vs. underlying event as a function of multiplicity using the jet-like two particle correlation method.
Another approach is to investigate the strangeness production as a function of multiplicity and effective energy.
In this contribution, we present up-to-date results of strangeness production in pp and p--Pb collisions via two particle correlations with non-strange charged hadron as a trigger particle and strange hadron as an associated particle. Moreover, strangeness production in pp collisions as a function of multiplicity at midrapidity and leading energy at forward rapidity measured by the ALICE experiment is shown.
The results of these measurements are compared to expectations from state-of-the-art phenomenological models implemented in commonly-used Monte Carlo event generators.
