Hence, larger absorption for 2S and 3S Manuel Calderón de la Barca Sánchez 14 ET|h|>4, Far activity: Single ratios vary very little as the activity increases Ntrack|h|<2.4, Near activity: Single ratios decrease significantly with increasing activity Interplay between produced and surrounding event, both in pp and pPb 3/7/13 Additional multiplicity produced with the ground state? Final-state interactions breaking up the excited states? Manuel Calderón de la Barca Sánchez 15 Span large range in event activity variables, pp, pPb, PbPb Overlap is limited between pPb and PbPb 3/7/13 Need additional data to investigate the dependence in the three systems. Manuel Calderón de la Barca Sánchez 16 Allows us to look at scaling of cross section with activity In PbPb, activity connected to Ncoll via Glauber model A simple binary-nucleon-nucleon collision ansatz: 3/7/13 In a given event, the yield of scales with binary collisions In the same event, the activity of the event also scales with binary collisions Leads to linear scaling of yields with activity, assuming no other effects Similar connection for pPb is also common paradigm: still deal with nucleon-nucleon collisons For pp, does this hold? Manuel Calderón de la Barca Sánchez 17 ET, Far activity Note: x-axis is also self-normalized. Close to linear scaling is observed for all systems, all states. Suppression in PbPb for high ET: central events. pPb, pp follow very closely line with slope 1 (dashed line) 3/7/13 Fit gives slope consistent with 1 within errors. All systems, all ϒ states.

ϒ(1S) production scaling: stronger than linear in pp. pp: indications that slope is smaller for 2S and for 3S.
