ATLAS and CMS results for the source radius R as a function of n_ch in pp interactions at 13 TeV. The CMS results (open circles) have been adjusted (by the CMS collaboration) to the ATLAS kinematic region∶ p_T > 100 MeV and |η|<2.5. The ATLAS uncertainties are the sum in quadrature of the statistical and asymmetric systematic uncertainties. For CMS, only the systematic uncertainties are shown since the statistical uncertainties are smaller than the marker size. The dashed blue (ATLAS) and black (CMS) lines represent the fit to ∛n_ch at low multiplicity, continued as dotted lines beyond the fit range. The solid green (ATLAS) and broken black (CMS) lines indicate the plateau level at high multiplicity.

Systematic uncertainties (in percent) in the correlation strength, λ, and source radius, R, for the exponential fit of the two-particle double-ratio correlation functions, R₂(Q), for p_T > 100 MeV at √s= 13 TeV for the MB and HMT events. The choice of MC generator gives rise to asymmetric uncertainties, denoted by uparrow and downarrow. This asymmetry propagates through to the cumulative uncertainty. The columns under ‘Uncertainty range’ show the range of systematic uncertainty from the fits in the various n_ch intervals.

The results of the fits to the dependencies of the correlation strength, λ, and source radius, R, on the average rescaled charged-particle multiplicity, m_ch, for |η| < 2.5 and both p_T > 100 MeV and p_T > 500 MeV at √s = 13 TeV for the minimum-bias (MB) and the high-multiplicity track (HMT) events. The parameters γ and δ resulting from a joint fit to the MB and HMT data are presented. The total uncertainties are shown.

The results of the fits to the dependencies of the correlation strength, λ, and source radius, R, on the pair average transverse momentum, k_T, for various functional forms and for minimum-bias (MB) and high-multiplicity track (HMT) events for p_T > 100 MeV and p_T > 500 MeV at √s = 13 TeV. The total uncertainties are shown.
