Pseudorapidity density distributions of charged particles and transverse momentum spectra of identified particles in pp collisions in PACIAE 4.0 model

Abstract: The pseudorapidity density distributions of charged particles and the transverse momentum spectra of identified particles in proton-proton (pp) collisions at the center-of-mass energies ranging from $\sqrt{s}=200$ GeV to 13 TeV have been systematically studied using the newly released parton and cascade model PACIAE 4.0 based on PYTHIA 8.3. The available experimental data are well reproduced across all analyzed aspects. This theoretical method can be easily extended to anywhere the experimental data for pp collisions are currently unavailable. Furthermore, since pp collisions serve as the baseline for heavy-ion collisions, our results can provide a valuable resource for both experimentalists and theorists.
