Findings

Entropy scaling holds up to the highest LHC energies.

Monte Carlo simulations align with experimental entropy data.

Predicted charged particle multiplicities at higher energies.

Abstract

Scaling of information entropy obtained from chaotically produced particles in p-p collisions, has been shown to be valid up to the highest available collision energy at LHC. Results from Monte Carlo simulation model PYTHIA 6.135 have also been compared. Based on the two com- ponent model and collision energy dependence of the chaoticity, charged particle multiplicities at proposed higher collision energies have been predicted.
