Description:
We study underlying-event observables in inelastic proton-proton (pp) collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $$sqrt{s} = 13$$ s = 13 TeV with identified light and heavy-flavor triggers using the PYTHIA 8 event generator. The study is performed as a function of the transverse momentum of the leading particle ($$p_mathrm {T}^mathrm{trigger}$$ p T trigger ). While at high $$p_mathrm {T}^mathrm{trigger}$$ p T trigger ($$〉10$$ 〉 10 GeV/c) the underlying-event activity is independent of the leading particle species, at intermediate $$p_mathrm {T}^mathrm{trigger}$$ p T trigger ($$2
