Multiplicity dependence of strange and multi-strange hadrons in p$-$p, p$-$Pb and Pb$-$Pb collisions at LHC energies using Tsallis-Weibull Formalism

The transverse momentum ($p_{T}$) distribution of strange hadrons ($K_{S}^{0}$ and $Λ$) and multi-strange hadrons( $Ξ$ and $Ω$) measured in p$-$p, p$-$Pb, and Pb$-$Pb collisions at LHC energies have been studied for different multiplicity classes using Tsallis-Weibull (or q$-$Weibull)formalism. The distribution describes the measured $p_{T}$ spectra for all multiplicity (or centrality)classes. The multiplicity dependence of the extracted parameters are studied for the mentioned collisions systems. The $λ$ parameter was observed to increase systematically with the collision multiplicity and follows a mass hierarchy for all collision system. This characteristic feature indicates that $λ$ can be associated to the strength of collectivity for heavy ion collisions. It can also be related to strength of dynamic effects such as multi-partonic interactions and color reconnections which mimic collectivity in smaller systems. The non-extensive $q$ parameter is found to be greater than one for all the particles suggesting that the strange particles are emitted from a source which is not fully equilibrated.
