Total particle multiplicities for π, K, P, Λ, Ξ and Ω multiplets as a function of center-of-mass energy in pp and AuAu/PbPb collisions. Note: Kink in the region of √sNN ≈ 4 - 6 GeV is due to uncertainties in the transition from resonances to strings.

π±
Comments: Pion multiplicities at low energies known to deviate. For π+ in pp caused by the overshoot in the inclusive pp cross section for π+ production (see cross section pp plots).
