Description

A thermodynamically consistent form of the Tsallis distribution at $y$ = 0 has been used for fitting the transverse momentum spectra $d^{2}N/dydp_{T}$ and to study the yields of particles measured by the ALICE and CMS experiments at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The Tsallis distribution describes the $p_{T}$ spectra very well. The values of $dN/dy|_{y=0}$ obtained from the Tsallis distribution are in agreement with the values measured by the ALICE and CMS experiments. The data to fit ratio and centre-of-mass energy dependence of $dN/dy|_{y=0}$ will be presented and discussed. An attempt will be made to study the particle ratios using Tsallis distribution at LHC energies.
