In high multiplicity pp scatterings at the LHC, energy densities should be achieved comparable to those in AuAu at RHIC energies. This requires similar theoretical treatments, like hydrodynamical expansion based on a high density initial condition. We discuss will discuss such an approach. We will in particular investigate the role of multiple scattering, and the flux tube structure of the initial conditions obtained from EPOS.
