Multiple Parton Interactions with ALICE: from pp to p-Pb

Abstract

The study of multiplicity dependent di-hadron angular correlations allows us to assess the contribution of multiple-parton interactions to particle production. We will review these measurements in pp and p-Pb collisions with the ALICE detector at the LHC and discuss the results in the context of centrality determination and other multiplicity dependent observables in p-Pb.
