The data are from proton-proton collisions at s?= 7 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.8 fb?1, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Evidence of a decrease in these ratios as a function of the particle multiplicity is observed, more pronounced at low transverse momentum p??T. For ?(nS) mesons with p??T > 7 GeV, where most of the data were collected, the correlation with multiplicity is studied as a function of the underlying event transverse sphericity and the number of particles in a cone around the ?(nS) direction. The ratios are found to be multiplicity independent for jet-like events. The mean p??T values for the ?(nS) states as a function of particle multiplicity are also measured and found to grow more steeply as their mass increases.enHigh Energy PhysicsExperiment (hep-ex)Article10.1007/JHEP11(2020)0012-s2.0-85096395259Q2WOS:000585126400001N/A
