Abstract

Recent preliminary results from ALICE on two-particle angular correlations in √s = 7 TeV proton-proton data revealed surprising structures in the ΔηΔφ correlation functions for like-sign baryon pairs. Those effects are clearly connected to the mechanisms of particle production. In order to gain new insights on this topic, in this work we show detailed studies of two-particle angular correlations obtained with Pythia Monte Carlo model. We conclude that the considered model does not reproduce experimental observations and therefore new constraints on the baryon production mechanisms should be proposed.
