abstract
Charged particle multiplicities are studied in proton-proton collisions in the forward region at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 7\;$TeV with data collected by the LHCb detector. The forward spectrometer allows access to a kinematic range of $2.0<\eta<4.8$ in pseudorapidity, momenta down to $2\;$GeV/$c$ and transverse momenta down to $0.2\;$GeV/$c$. The measurements are performed using minimum-bias events with at least one charged particle in the kinematic acceptance. The results are presented as functions of pseudorapidity and transverse momentum and are compared to predictions from several Monte Carlo event generators.

The generalized dipole model fits entropy and mean multiplicity data from proton-proton collisions significantly better than the standard 1D Mueller dipole model.
MC-CGC simulations with rcBK evolution favor HERA-tuned MV^γ and MV^e initial conditions for LHCb forward hadron data, show kT factorization outperforming DHJ at mid-rapidity, and provide predictions for ALICE FoCal neutral mesons and jets.
An approximate formula for the entropy of the negative binomial distribution is provided, with up to ~20% deviation from exact values for extreme parameters.
