  First results on charged hadron transverse momentum spectra in pp collisions
obtained by the CMS Collaboration at LHC were analyzed in z-scaling approach.
The first LHC data confirm z-scaling. The saturation regime of the scaling
function psi(z) observed in pp and antp-pp interactions at lower energy sqrt s
= 19-1960 GeV is verified. The saturation of psi(z) for charged hadrons is
found down to z=0.05 at the highest energy sqrt s = 2360 GeV reached till now
at colliders. A microscopic scenario of hadron production is discussed in
connection with search for new signatures of phase transitions in hadron
matter. Constituent energy loss and its dependencies on the transverse momentum
of charged hadrons and collision energy are estimated. The beam energy scan at
LHC in the saturation region is suggested.
