Description

Latest results of particle correlations in pPb and PbPb collisions at the LHC from the CMS experiment will be presented. In particular, focus will be given to the studies of long-range two-particle correlations (known as the "Ridge") observed in high-multiplicity pPb collisions and their implications to collective phenomena in small systems. These correlations are studied as a function of transverse momentum, pseudorapidity, and event multiplicity, for both inclusive charged particles and neutral strange hadrons. Furthermore, multiparticle correlations are employed to investigate the collective nature of the observed novel correlations.
