Thermodynamic Limit in High-Multiplicity Proton-Proton Collisions at s=7 TeV by Natasha Sharma, Jean Cleymans, Boris Hippolyte

“…This allows us to conclude that this multiplicity class is close to the thermodynamic limit. It is estimated that the final state in pp collisions could reach the thermodynamic limit when dNch/dη is larger than twenty per unit of rapidity, corresponding to about 300 particles in the final state when integrated over the full rapidity interval.…”
