Strangeness production in two-particle azimuthal correlations on the near and away side measured with ALICE in pp collisions at 7 TeV

Two-particle azimuthal correlations allow one to study high-$p_{\rm T}$ parton fragmentation without full jet reconstruction. Enhancements of the azimuthal correlations are seen at $Δφ\approx 0$ and $Δφ\approx π$, resulting from back-to-back jet fragmentation in the parton center-of-mass system. We present the current status of the study of correlations between charged trigger particles and associated strange baryons ($Λ$) and mesons (K$_{S}^{0}$) in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV. A data-driven feeddown correction for $Λ$ is also presented, which could allow a more accurate calculation of the primary $Λ/$K$_{S}^{0}$ ratio in jets and the underlying event.
