Abstract

The charged-particle production ratios p̄/p, K -/K +, π -/π +, (p+p̄)/(π + + π -), (K ++K -)/(π ++π -) and (p+p̄)/(K + K -) are measured with the LHCb detector using 0. 3 nb -1 of pp collisions delivered by the LHC at √s = 0.9 TeV and 1. 8 nb -1 at √s = 7 TeV. The measurements are performed as a function of transverse momentum p T and pseudorapidity η. The production ratios are compared to the predictions of several Monte Carlo generator settings, none of which are able to describe adequately all observables. The ratio p̄/p is also considered as a function of rapidity loss, Δy≡y beam-y, and is used to constrain models of baryon transport. © 2012 CERN for the benefit of the LHCb collaboration.
