abstract
Measurements are presented from proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of sqrt(s) = 0.9, 2.36 and 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Events were collected using a single-arm minimum-bias trigger. The charged-particle multiplicity, its dependence on transverse momentum and pseudorapidity and the relationship between the mean transverse momentum and charged-particle multiplicity are measured. Measurements in different regions of phase-space are shown, providing diffraction-reduced measurements as well as more inclusive ones. The observed distributions are corrected to well-defined phase-space regions, using model-independent corrections. The results are compared to each other and to various Monte Carlo models, including a new AMBT1 PYTHIA 6 tune. In all the kinematic regions considered, the particle multiplicities are higher than predicted by the Monte Carlo models. The central charged-particle multiplicity per event and unit of pseudorapidity, for tracks with pT >100 MeV, is measured to be 3.483 +- 0.009 (stat) +- 0.106 (syst) at sqrt(s) = 0.9 TeV and 5.630 +- 0.003 (stat) +- 0.169 (syst) at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV.

Using a phenomenologically motivated spectrum shift model, the authors estimate partonic Δp_T loss and demonstrate its correlation with initial energy density ε_Bj across collision energies, then predict high-pT v2 that agrees with data.
Reciprocal symmetry f_s(z)=f_s(1/z) implies local constraints on multiplicity distributions at n=<n> that hold to leading order in ATLAS data, plus a model-independent entanglement entropy expression S=ln<n>+1-½∫e^{-z}f_s²(z)dz+O(f_s³).
The generalized dipole model fits entropy and mean multiplicity data from proton-proton collisions significantly better than the standard 1D Mueller dipole model.
An approximate formula for the entropy of the negative binomial distribution is provided, with up to ~20% deviation from exact values for extreme parameters.
