Self-normalized prompt \jpsi yields with $\pt>1$~\GeVc as a function of the self-normalized charged-particle multiplicity in $|\eta|0.9$ measured in the toward (left), transverse (middle), and away (right) azimuthal regions with respect to the \jpsi momentum direction. The data are shown separately for the INEL$>$0 and V0M~0--0.1\% event classes and are compared to PYTHIA 8 simulations using different settings~, as well as EPOS4HQ with and without hydrodynamics activated~. The lower panels show the ratios to the expectation from a linear increase. The vertical bars and boxes indicate the statistical and systematic uncertainties, respectively.
