Description

Measurements of identified charged particle production as a function of multiplicity in pp and p-Pb collisions are important tools for understanding the similarities and differences between small and large interacting systems. The collective-like behavior observed in high multiplicity pp events is reminiscent of those observed in heavy-ion collisions. With its excellent tracking and particle identification capabilities, ALICE is an ideal instrument for the systematic study of pion, kaon and proton production from very low to high transverse momentum. In this report, the results of minimum bias as well as multiplicity-dependent transverse momentum spectra, $p_{\rm{T}}$-integrated yield ratio and $\langle p_{\rm{T}} \rangle$ of pions, kaons and protons in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV will be presented. These results will be compared with the lower energy results of pp, p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions as well as the predictions of various Monte-Carlo event generators and hydrodynamic models.
