Abstract

Inclusive J/ yields and average transverse momenta in p-Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair = 8.16 TeV are measured as a function of the charged-particle pseudorapidity density with ALICE. The J/ mesons are reconstructed at forward and backward () center-of-mass rapidity in their dimuon decay channel while the charged-particle pseudorapidity density is measured around midrapidity. The J/ yields at forward and backward rapidity normalized to their respective average values increase with the normalized charged-particle pseudorapidity density, the former showing a weaker increase than the latter. The normalized average transverse momenta at forward and backward rapidity manifest a steady increase from low to high charged-particle pseudorapidity density with a saturation beyond the average value.
