Application of strongly intensive quantity in the investigation of forward-backward correlation in UrQMD simulated pp collisions at TeV

Abstract This work utilizes the novel approach of the strongly intensive quantity to investigate the forward-backward multiplicity correlation in UrQMD simulated pp collisions TeV. Evidence of forward-backward correlation has been noted in UrQMD simulated pp collisions at different separation between the forward and backward pseudo-rapidity zones. The strongly intensive quantity has been found to increase slowly with increasing separation ( between the forward and backward pseudo-rapidity zones. Comparisons of this analysis with PYTHIA tuned with Monash 2013 simulated values, EPOS3 simulated values and ALICE Collaboration values (for minimum bias events) have also been presented.
