The pith

Prompt and non-prompt J/ψ production in proton-proton collisions rises stronger than linearly with charged-particle multiplicity.

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

The paper measures the yields of J/ψ mesons produced directly in the collision and those originating from beauty-hadron decays, both normalized to their average values in inelastic events. These self-normalized yields are examined as a function of the number of charged particles produced at midrapidity in 13 TeV pp collisions, using the dielectron decay channel. Both prompt and non-prompt components exhibit a stronger-than-linear increase with multiplicity, and the trends remain similar between the two. When the multiplicity is divided into azimuthal sectors relative to the J/ψ direction, the strong rise persists in the toward region but weakens in the transverse and away regions. The ratio of prompt J/ψ to D0 yields is also reported as varying with multiplicity.

Core claim

Self-normalized yields of both prompt and non-prompt J/ψ increase more steeply than linearly with rising midrapidity charged-particle multiplicity in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV. The increase is comparable for the two components and is strongest when multiplicity is measured in the azimuthal toward region aligned with the J/ψ, while it is weaker in the transverse and away regions. The multiplicity dependence of the prompt J/ψ to D0 yield ratio is additionally quantified.

What carries the argument

Self-normalized yields of J/ψ mesons separated into prompt and non-prompt components via the dielectron decay channel, evaluated in bins of midrapidity charged-particle multiplicity and further subdivided into three azimuthal regions (toward, transverse, away) relative to the J/ψ momentum direction.

If this is right

  • Both direct and beauty-decay J/ψ production mechanisms are enhanced in high-multiplicity pp events beyond simple linear scaling with particle density.
  • The similar multiplicity dependence for prompt and non-prompt J/ψ points to a common underlying driver affecting heavy-quark production.
  • The azimuthal variation, with stronger rise toward the J/ψ direction, indicates that the enhancement correlates with the direction of the leading particle.
  • The reported multiplicity dependence of the prompt J/ψ to D0 ratio constrains models of charm and beauty production in small systems.

Where Pith is reading between the lines

These are editorial extensions of the paper, not claims the author makes directly.

  • The observed trends in pp collisions may share a common origin with collective-like behavior reported in high-multiplicity small systems.
  • If the enhancement is universal across quarkonia, it could affect the baseline used to interpret suppression signals in heavy-ion collisions.
  • Measurements with other heavy-flavor species or at different collision energies would test whether the stronger-than-linear scaling is a general feature of high-multiplicity pp events.

Load-bearing premise

Prompt and non-prompt J/ψ components can be accurately separated in the dielectron channel without multiplicity-dependent biases from efficiency corrections or event selection.

What would settle it

A new measurement that finds only linear or weaker growth in self-normalized J/ψ yields with multiplicity, or that obtains inconsistent prompt versus non-prompt trends when using an independent separation technique such as decay-vertex displacement.

read the original abstract

The yields of prompt and non-prompt J/$\psi$ and the fraction of non-prompt J/$\psi$ are measured at midrapidity ($|y| < 0.9$) via the dielectron decay channel as a function of the midrapidity charged-particle multiplicity ($|\eta| < 0.9$) in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV. The J/$\psi$ yields and the multiplicity are normalized by their average value in inelastic collisions. The multiplicity-dependent yield ratio between prompt J/$\psi$ and D$^0$ is reported. The multiplicity is further divided into three azimuthal regions with respect to the J/$\psi$ momentum: toward the J/$\psi$ 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/$\psi$ 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.

Referee Report

2 major / 2 minor

Summary. The manuscript reports measurements of prompt and non-prompt J/ψ yields at midrapidity (|y| < 0.9) in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV via the dielectron channel, as a function of midrapidity charged-particle multiplicity (|η| < 0.9). Both yields and multiplicity are self-normalized to their inelastic averages. Prompt/non-prompt separation uses template fits to the pseudo-proper decay length. The multiplicity is further subdivided into toward, transverse, and away azimuthal regions relative to the J/ψ direction. The central result is a stronger-than-linear rise in self-normalized yields for both prompt and non-prompt J/ψ (with similar trends), more pronounced in the toward region than in the transverse and away regions; the prompt J/ψ to D⁰ yield ratio versus multiplicity is also presented.

Significance. If the trends are robust, the work supplies new experimental input on charmonium production mechanisms in high-multiplicity pp events. The simultaneous treatment of prompt and non-prompt components together with azimuthal-region dependence helps discriminate between multiple-parton-interaction effects and possible collective phenomena in small systems. Self-normalization reduces certain systematic uncertainties and facilitates direct comparison with models and other experiments.

major comments (2)
  1. [Analysis procedure for prompt/non-prompt separation] The prompt/non-prompt separation via pseudo-proper decay length template fits is load-bearing for the reported trends. The manuscript should explicitly demonstrate that the fit quality, template shapes, and any multiplicity-dependent biases remain under control in the highest multiplicity bins (analysis section describing the separation procedure).
  2. [Yield extraction and efficiency corrections] Self-normalized yields rely on efficiency corrections and event selection being multiplicity-independent after normalization. The paper must quantify any residual multiplicity-dependent efficiency bias (e.g., via data-driven closure tests) because this directly affects the claimed stronger-than-linear behavior (results section on yield extraction).
minor comments (2)
  1. Figure captions and legends should explicitly label which curves correspond to prompt versus non-prompt J/ψ and to the three azimuthal regions for immediate readability.
  2. The abstract states that the prompt J/ψ–D⁰ ratio is reported; the main text should clarify the D⁰ selection criteria and whether the same multiplicity estimator is used for both species.

  1. Referee: [Analysis procedure for prompt/non-prompt separation] The prompt/non-prompt separation via pseudo-proper decay length template fits is load-bearing for the reported trends. The manuscript should explicitly demonstrate that the fit quality, template shapes, and any multiplicity-dependent biases remain under control in the highest multiplicity bins (analysis section describing the separation procedure).

    Authors: We agree that explicit validation of the separation procedure is essential. In the revised manuscript we will expand the relevant analysis section with additional figures showing fit quality (including residuals and goodness-of-fit metrics) specifically for the highest multiplicity bins. We will also present comparisons of template shapes across multiplicity classes to demonstrate their stability and summarize Monte Carlo studies that bound any multiplicity-dependent biases to well below the reported uncertainties. revision: yes

  2. Referee: [Yield extraction and efficiency corrections] Self-normalized yields rely on efficiency corrections and event selection being multiplicity-independent after normalization. The paper must quantify any residual multiplicity-dependent efficiency bias (e.g., via data-driven closure tests) because this directly affects the claimed stronger-than-linear behavior (results section on yield extraction).

    Authors: We acknowledge the importance of quantifying residual biases. The revised manuscript will include, in the yield-extraction section, data-driven closure tests (based on embedded simulations) that explicitly evaluate multiplicity-dependent efficiency variations after self-normalization. These tests will provide quantitative upper limits on any residual bias, confirming that it does not affect the observed stronger-than-linear rise. revision: yes

Circularity Check

0 steps flagged

No significant circularity: direct experimental measurement

full rationale

The paper reports empirical measurements of self-normalized prompt and non-prompt J/ψ yields versus charged-particle multiplicity in pp collisions at 13 TeV, obtained via dielectron reconstruction, pseudo-proper decay length template fits for component separation, and normalization to inelastic averages. No theoretical derivation chain exists; the reported stronger-than-linear trends and azimuthal-region dependence are direct data outputs. Efficiency corrections, event selection, and multiplicity binning follow standard ALICE procedures without any fitted parameter being relabeled as a prediction or any result reducing to its own inputs by construction. Self-citations are limited to prior experimental methods and do not bear the central claim.
