Effect of event classification on the Tsallis-thermometer

We analyze identified hadron spectra in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV measured by ALICE within a non-extensive statistical framework. Spectra classified by multiplicity, flattenicity, and spherocity were fitted with the Tsallis-Pareto distribution, and the parameters were studied on the Tsallis-thermometer. Multiplicity and flattenicity classes follow a previously observed scaling, while the non-extensivity parameter shows a distinct sensitivity to the spherocity. A data-driven parametrization confirms a proportionality between the Tsallis temperature and mean transverse momentum, offering a simple estimate of the effective temperature. These results highlight the ability of the Tsallis-thermometer to capture both multiplicity and event-shape effects, linking soft and hard processes in small systems.

How far can we see back in time in high-energy collisions using charm hadrons?

We use open charm production to estimate how far we can see back in time in high-energy hadron-hadron collisions. We analyze the transverse momentum distributions of the identified D mesons from pp, p--Pb and A--A collisions at the ALICE and STAR experiments covering the energy range from $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 200$~GeV up to 7~TeV. Within a non-extensive statistical framework, the common Tsallis parameters for D mesons represent higher temperature and more degrees of freedom than that of light-flavour hadrons. Assuming Bjorken-expansion, the production of D mesons corresponds to a significantly earlier proper time, $\tau_{\rm D} = (0.18 \pm 0.06) \tau_{\rm LF}$.

Near and Far from Equilibrium Power-Law Statistics

We analyze the connection between $p_T$ and multiplicity distributions in a statistical framework. We connect the Tsallis parameters, $T$ and $q$, to physical properties like average energy per particle and the second scaled factorial moment, $F_2=\langle n(n-1) \rangle / {\langle n \rangle}^2$, measured in multiplicity distributions. Near and far from equilibrium scenarios with master equations for the probability of having $n$ particles, $P_n$, are reviewed based on hadronization transition rates, $μ_n$, from $n$ to $n+1$ particles.
