Abstract
A study is performed on the possible Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) of pions in proton-proton (pp) collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. To have a better understanding, the results of pp systems have been contrasted with the systems produced in Pb-Pb collisions. We studied the temperature and final state multiplicity dependence of the number of particles in the pion condensates. A wide range of multiplicity is considered, covering the hadronic and heavy-ion collisions, using experimental transverse momentum spectra inputs. We observe a clear dominancy of non-extensive parameter q, which measures the degree of non-equilibrium, on the critical temperature and number of particles in the pion condensates.
