At LHC energies, the charged-particle multiplicity dependence of particle production is a topic of considerable interest in $pp$ collisions. It has been argued that multiple partonic interactions play an important role in particle production mechanisms, not only affecting the soft processes but also the hard processes. Recently, ALICE has measured $J/psi$ production as a function of charged-particle multiplicity to study the correlation between soft and hard processes. In this contribution, we present the $J/psi$ production versus multiplicity for $pp$ and $p-Pb$ collisions measured by ALICE. We compare the results with different theoretical models.

Quarkonium production as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity could provide an insight into particle production processes at the partonic level in hadronic collisions. It is believed that multiple partonic interactions play an important role in particle production and affect both soft and hard processes. The study of correlations between quarkonia and charged-particle multiplicity may provide information about this. In this contribution, ALICE measurements of J$/psi$ and $Upsilon$ production as a function of charged-particle multiplicity are presented for pp collisions at center-of-mass energies $sqrt{s}$ = 5.02 and 13 TeV. A similar measurement performed in ptextendash Pb collisions at $sqrt{s_{rm{NN}}}$ = 8.16 TeV at both forward and backward rapidity is also discussed.
Heavy quarks (charm and beauty) are produced in hard-scattering processes and the study of their production in proton--proton (pp) collisions is an important test for calculations based on perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (pQCD). Heavy-flavor production as a function of charged-particle multiplicity provides insight into the processes occurring at the partonic level and the interplay between the hard and soft particle production mechanisms in pp collisions. In this contribution, measurements of open heavy-flavor production as a function of multiplicity, via the study of the $mathrm{D}$-meson self-normalized yields in pp collisions at the center-of-mass energy of $sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV is presented. The $mathrm{D}$-meson self-normalized yield is found to increase stronger than linearly with increasing charged-particle multiplicity. The measurements are compared to theoretical model calculations, and with the results at $sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV.
DJpsiFDC is an event generator package for the process $ggto J/psi J/psi$. It generates events for primary leading-order $2to 2$ processes. The package could generate a LHE document and this document could easily be embedded into detector simulation software frameworks. The package is produced in Fortran codes.
Strange quark and particle production is studied at the LHC with unprecedented high beam energies in both heavy-ion and proton-proton collisions: on the one hand, strangeness is used for investigating chemical equilibration and bulk properties; on the other hand, strange particles contribute to probe different kinematical domains, from the one where collective phenomena are at play up to the region dominated by pQCD-calculable processes. We highlight the suitability of the ALICE experiment for this topic, presenting our latest measurements and comparing them to models.
The associated production of J/psi + gamma at the LHC is studied within the NRQCD framework. The signal we focus on is the production of a J/psi and an isolated photon produced back-to-back, with their transverse momenta balanced. It is shown that even for very large values of transverse momentum (pT of the order of 50 GeV) the dominant contribution to this process is not fragmentation. This is because of the fact that fragmentation-type contributions to the cross-section come from only a q q(bar) initial state, which is suppressed at the LHC. We identify gg-initiated diagrams higher-order in alpha(s) which do have fragmentation-type vertices. We find, however, that the contribution of these diagrams is negligibly small.
