Description

We will present the final measurement studying the relationship between the production of hard and soft particles through the correlation of Upsilon meson states (including $\Upsilon$(1S), $\Upsilon$(2S), and $\Upsilon$(3S)) with the inclusive-charged particle yields. The analysis is performed using the full-luminosity ATLAS Run-2 13 TeV $pp$ collision data. A description of the technical challenges and solutions associated with a heavy-ion style analysis in high-pileup $pp$ data will be shown. Per-event charged particle multiplicity is found to be smaller in association with excited $\Upsilon$ states compared to that with a ground state at low $\Upsilon$ transverse momentum. The physics implications will be discussed.
