Description

In recent years, the ALICE experiment has collected data in proton-proton
collisions at various centre-of-mass energies. In addition to providing a
baseline for heavy-ion collisions, these data provide information on the
particle production in high energy collisions through the study of energy
dependence of various observables. With large statistics data samples
collected in pp at $\sqrt{s}~=$ 7 and 13 TeV, it is possible to investigate
the multiplicity dependence of observables. Hence one can test the behaviour
of observables related to possible quark-gluon plasma formation in high
multiplicity pp collisions.

We report on the energy dependence of identified particles
(such as $\pi^{\pm}$, K$^{\pm}$, p, $\bar{p}$, light nuclei and anti-nuclei)
production in pp collisions. The multiplicity dependence is studied for pp
collisions at 7 TeV and 13 TeV. The data are compared with available QCD
inspired models.
