Yield ratios of identified hadrons observed in high multiplicity p+p and p+Pb collisions at LHC show remarkable similarity with those in Pb+Pb collisions, indicating some important and universal underlying dynamics in hadron production for different quark gluon final states. We use the quark combination model to explain the data of yield ratios in these three collision systems. The observed $p/\pi$ and $\Lambda/K_s^0$ can be reproduced simultaneously by quark combination, and these two ratios reflect the rate of baryon production at hadronization which is the same in light sector and strange sector and is roughly constant in p+p, p+Pb and Pb+Pb collision systems over three orders of magnitude in charged particle multiplicity.The data of $K_s^0/\pi$, $\Lambda/\pi$, $\Xi/\pi$ and $\Omega/\pi$ show a hierarchy behavior relating to the strangeness content, and are naturally explained by quark combination both in the saturate stage at high multiplicity and in the increase stage at moderate multiplicity. Our results suggest that the dynamical characteristic of quark combination is necessary in describing the production of hadrons in small systems created in p+p and p+Pb collisions.

  1. Transverse momentum dependence of $\Omega/\phi$ ratio in high energy collisions

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    The p_T dependence of the Ω/φ ratio in pp, p-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions is dominated by the discrete curvature of the strange-quark transverse-momentum spectrum extracted from φ data via quark-number scaling.
