Description

Investigating particle production in various collision systems has become in-
strumental in probing non-perturbative contributions to hadron structure and
hadronization. The LHCb spectrometer’s unique geometry among the LHC de-
tectors along with its particle identification and tracking capabilities allow for
new studies in hadron production to identify how said contributions manifest in
hadronic collisions. In this talk, we will discuss recent and upcoming measure-
ments from the LHCb collaboration regarding charged particle production and
hadronization as well as how they are modified based on collision system, loca-
tion in phase space, and event activity. We will also briefly describe the current
landscape of models which account for non-perturbative modifications in struc-
ture or hadronization and how these results help to identify which mechanisms
are contributing in hadron collisions; particularly small systems.
