Abstract
The local growth global reset (LGGR) dynamical model is reviewed and its performance in describing the hadron energy spectra in relativistic collisions is demonstrated. It is shown that even for dynamical processes a temperature-like quantity can be defined and distributions resembling statistical equilibrium can be reached. With appropriate growth and reset rates the LGGR model is capable of describing the right energy spectra. These findings draw a certain picture of quark–gluon plasma development with random hadronization and re-swallowing steps and signals the fact that observing an exponential spectrum does not necessarily prove thermal equilibrium in the experiment.

Abstract
Dependencies of midrapidity pt distributions of the charged pions and kaons, protons and antiprotons on charged-particle multiplicity density (<dNch/dη>) in inelastic proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 7 TeV at the LHC, measured by ALICE Collaboration, are investigated. The simultaneous minimum χ2 fits with the Tsallis function with thermodynamical consistence and the Hagedorn function with included transverse flow have well-described the pt spectra of the particle species in the ten studied groups of charged-particle multiplicity density. The effective temperatures, T, of the Tsallis function with thermodynamical consistence have shown a steady rise with increasing the charged-particle multiplicity in proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 7 TeV, in agreement with the similar result obtained recently in proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 13 TeV at the LHC. The respective T versus <dNch/dη> dependence in proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 7 TeV is reproduced quite well by the simple power function with the same value (≈ 1/3) of the exponent parameter as that extracted in proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 13 TeV. The identical power dependence T~ε1/3 between the initial energy density and effective temperature of the system has been observed in proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 7 and 13 TeV. We have observed that the transverse radial flow emerges at <dNch/dη> ≈ 6 and then increases, becoming substantial at larger multiplicity events in proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 7 TeV. We have estimated, analyzing T0 and ⟨βt⟩ versus <dNch/dη> dependencies, that the possible onset of deconfinement phase transition in proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 7 TeV occurs at <dNch/dη> ≈ 6.1 ± 0.3, which is close to the corresponding recent estimate (<dNch/dη> ≈ 7.1 ± 0.2) in proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 13 TeV. The corresponding critical energy densities for probable onset of deconfinement phase transition in proton-proton collisions at (s)1/2 = 7 and 13 TeV at the LHC have been estimated to be 0.67 ± 0.03 and 0.76 ± 0.02 GeV/fm3, respectively.
