Geometrical scaling and the dependence of the average transverse momentum on the multiplicity and energy for the ALICE experiment

We review the recent ALICE data on charged particle multiplicity in p–p collisions, and show that it exhibits Geometrical Scaling (GS) with energy dependence given with characteristic exponent λ=0.22. Next, starting from the GS hypothesis and using results of the Color Glass Condensate effective the...
