Vector mesons are key probes of the hot and dense state of strongly interacting matter produced in heavy ion collisions. Their dileptonic decay channel is particularly suitable for these studies, since dileptons have negligible final state interactions in hadronic matter. A preliminary measurement of the $phi$ and $omega$ differential cross sections was performed by the ALICE experiment in pp collisions at $sqrt{s}=7$ TeV, through their decay in muon pairs. The $p_{rm T}$ and rapidity regions covered in this analysis are $p_{rm T}>1$ GeV$/c$ and $2.5 < y < 4$.

Proton-proton (pp) collisions have been used extensively as a reference for the study of interactions of larger colliding systems at the LHC. Recent measurements performed in high-multiplicity pp and proton-lead (p-Pb) collisions have shown features that are reminiscent of those observed in lead-lead (Pb-Pb) collisions. In this context, the study of identified particle spectra and yields as a function of multiplicity is a key tool for the understanding of similarities and differences between small and large systems. We report on the production of pions, kaons, protons, $K^{0}_{rm S}$, $Lambda$, $Xi$, $Omega$ and $K^{*0}$ as a function of multiplicity in pp collisions at $sqrt{s}=$ 7 TeV measured with the ALICE experiment. The work presented here represents the most comprehensive set of results on identified particle production in pp collisions at the LHC. Spectral shapes, studied both for individual particles and via particle ratios as a function of $p_{rm T}$, exhibit an evolution with charged particle multiplicity that is similar to the one observed in larger systems. In addition, results on the production of light flavour hadrons in pp collisions at $sqrt{s}=$ 13 TeV, the highest centre-of-mass energy ever reached in the laboratory, are also presented and compared with previous, lower energy results.

Hadrons measured in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 0.9 and 7 TeV with the ALICE detector have been identified using various techniques: the specific energy loss and the time-of flight information for charged pions, kaons and protons, the displ aced vertex resulting from their weak decay for K0, Lambda and Xi and the kink topology of decaying charged kaons. These various particle identification tools give the best separation at different momentum ranges and the results are combined to obtain spectra from pt = 100 MeV/c to 2.5 GeV/c. This allows to extract total yields. In detail we discuss the K/pi ratio together with previous measurements and we show a fit using a statistical approach.
The differential cross-section for the inclusive production of psi(2S) mesons in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV has been measured with the LHCb detector. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb-1. The psi(2S) mesons are recon structed in the decay channels psi(2S) -> mu+ mu- and psi(2S) -> J/psi pi+ pi-, with the J/psi meson decaying into two muons. Results are presented both for promptly produced psi(2S) mesons and for those originating from b-hadron decays. In the kinematic range pT(psi(2S)) <= 16 GeV/c and 2 < y(psi(2S)) <= 4.5 we measure 1.44 +- 0.01 +- 0.12+0.2-0.4 mub for prompt psi(2S) production and 0.25 +- 0.01 +- 0.02 mub for psi(2S) from b-hadron decays, where the last uncertainty on the prompt cross-section is due to the unknown psi(2S) polarization. Recent QCD calculations are found to be in good agreement with our measurements. Combining the present result with the LHCb J/psi measurements we determine the inclusive branching fraction B(b -> psi(2S) X) = (2.73 +- 0.06 +- 0.16 +- 0.24) x 10^(-3), where the last uncertainty is due to the B(b -> J/psi X), B(J/psi -> mu+ mu-) and B(psi(2S) -> e+ e-) branching fraction uncertainties. All above results are corrected by an erratum included as an appendix.

Recent measurements of charm-baryon production in proton--proton (pp) collisions at midrapidity by the ALICE collaboration showed that baryon-to-meson yield ratios are significantly higher than those measured in $rm e^+e^-$ collisions. The charm bary on-to-meson and charm baryon-to-baryon yield ratios provide unique information on hadronization mechanisms since the contributions from parton distribution function and parton--parton scattering terms cancel in the ratios. In this contribution, the first measurement of $rm Omega_{c}^{0}$ production via the hadronic decay channel $rm Omega_{c}^{0} rightarrow Omega^{-}pi^{+}$ (and its charge conjugate) in $2<p_{rm T}<12$ GeV/$c$ performed with the ALICE detector at midrapidity in pp collisions at $sqrt{s}=$ 13 TeV is presented. The $rm Omega_c^0/D^0$ and $rm Omega_c^0/Xi_c^0$ ratios multiplied by the decay branching ratio $rm BR(Omega_{c}^{0} rightarrow Omega^{-}pi^+)$, which is not experimentally measured, are compared to MC generators with fragmentation fractions based on $rm e^+e^-$ measurements and models including hadronization of charm quark via coalescence.
The production of K_short mesons in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 0.9 TeV is studied with the LHCb detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The luminosity of the analysed sample is determined using a novel technique, involving measurement s of the beam currents, sizes and positions, and is found to be 6.8 +/- 1.0 microbarn^-1. The differential prompt K_short production cross-section is measured as a function of the K_short transverse momentum and rapidity in the region 0 < pT < 1.6 GeV/c and 2.5 < y < 4.0. The data are found to be in reasonable agreement with previous measurements and generator expectations.
