Description

Modeling of the charged-particle multiplicity dependence on transverse momentum, pseudorapidity and the relationship between the mean transverse momentum and charged-particle multiplicity are presented for pp collisions at center of mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV with two different Monte Carlo event generators, Pythia 8 and Herwig++ 2.7.1, including studies of light quarks and heavy quarks, $t \bar{t}$ production. The results are achieved with charged particles with transverse momentum larger than 500 MeV and absolute pseudorapidity less than 3, in events with at least one charged particle, and in events with at least six charged particles filling these kinematic requirements.
