Abstract

The yields of particle pairs at short-(∆<jats:italic>η</jats:italic>∼ 0) and long-range (1<jats:italic>.</jats:italic>6<jats:italic>&lt;</jats:italic>|∆<jats:italic>η</jats:italic>|<jats:italic>&lt;</jats:italic>1<jats:italic>.</jats:italic>8) in pseudorapidity are extracted on the near-side (∆<jats:italic>φ</jats:italic>∼ 0). They are reported as a function of transverse momentum (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic><jats:sub>T</jats:sub>) in the range 1<jats:italic>&lt; p</jats:italic><jats:sub>T</jats:sub><jats:italic>&lt;</jats:italic>4 GeV/<jats:italic>c</jats:italic>. Furthermore, the event-scale dependence is studied for the first time by requiring the presence of high-<jats:italic>p</jats:italic><jats:sub>T</jats:sub>leading particles or jets for varying<jats:italic>p</jats:italic><jats:sub>T</jats:sub>thresholds. The results demonstrate that the long-range “ridge” yield, possibly related to the collective behavior of the system, is present in events with high-<jats:italic>p</jats:italic><jats:sub>T</jats:sub>processes as well. The magnitudes of the short- and long-range yields are found to grow with the event scale. The results are compared to EPOS LHC and PYTHIA 8 calculations, with and without string-shoving interactions. It is found that while both models describe the qualitative trends in the data, calculations from EPOS LHC show a better quantitative agreement for the<jats:italic>p</jats:italic><jats:sub>T</jats:sub>dependency, while overestimating the event-scale dependency.</jats:p>
