Multiplicity dependence of prompt and non-prompt J/ψ production at midrapidity in pp collisions at $$\sqrt{s}=13$$ TeV

A bstract The yields of prompt and non-prompt J/ ψ and the fraction of non-prompt J/ ψ are measured at midrapidity (| y | η | $$\sqrt{s}=13$$ TeV. The J/ ψ yields and the multiplicity are normalized by their average value in inelastic collisions. The multiplicity-dependent yield ratio between prompt J/ ψ and D 0 is reported. The multiplicity is further divided into three azimuthal regions with respect to the J/ ψ momentum: toward the J/ ψ emission direction, transverse, or opposite to it. A stronger-than-linear increase of the self-normalized yields is observed for both prompt and non-prompt J/ ψ production, with similar trends. This behaviour is also observed in the toward region, while a weaker increase is observed in the transverse and away regions.
