The first measurement of the multiplicity dependence of intra-jet properties of leading charged-particle jets in proton–proton (pp) collisions is reported. The mean chargedparticle multiplicity and jet fragmentation distributions are measured in minimum-bias and high-multiplicity pp collisions at center-of-mass energy √s = 13 TeV using the ALICE detector. Jets are reconstructed from charged particles produced in the midrapidity region (|η| < 0.9) using the sequential recombination anti-kT algorithm with jet resolution parameters R = 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 for the transverse momentum (pT) interval 5–110 GeV/c. The highmultiplicity events are selected by the forward V0 scintillator detectors. The mean charged-particle multiplicity inside the leading jet cone rises monotonically with increasing jet pT in qualitative agreement with previous measurements at lower energies. The distributions of jet fragmentation function variables z&sup(ch) and ξ&sup(ch) are measured for different jet-p&sub(T) intervals. Jet-p&sub(T) independent fragmentation of leading jets is observed for wider jets except at high- and low-z&sup(ch) values. The observed “hump-backed plateau” structure in the ξ ch distribution indicates suppression of low-p&sub(T) particles. In high-multiplicity events, an enhancement of the fragmentation probability of low-z&sup(ch) particles accompanied by a suppression of high-z&sup(ch) particles is observed compared to minimum-bias events. This behavior becomes more prominent for low-p&sub(T) jets with larger jet radius. The results are compared with predictions of QCD-inspired event generators, PYTHIA 8 with Monash 2013 tune and EPOS LHC. It is found that PYTHIA 8 qualitatively reproduces the jet modification in high-multiplicity events except at high jet p&sub(T). These measurements provide important constraints to models of jet fragmentation.
