Similar to the sea-full effect. Pythia can’t describe the effect.
The sea-gull effect is smeared in the nulceus collisions. Remnant effect exist.

Both <pBoth <ptt> and R decrease with the increasing > and R decrease with the increasing multiplicity, the smaller event-multiplicity is , multiplicity, the smaller event-multiplicity is , the stronger the correlation is.the stronger the correlation is.
The mean transverse momentum is longitudinal The mean transverse momentum is longitudinal momentum related, and the correlation is momentum related, and the correlation is longitudinal momentum independent. PYTHIA longitudinal momentum independent. PYTHIA can roughly describe the rapidity dependence of can roughly describe the rapidity dependence of R but not for <pR but not for <ptt> .> .
