When using this data, please cite the original publication:

Additionally, you should cite the record:

@misc{hepdata.69538, author = "{CMS Collaboration}", title = "{Measurement of the top quark pair production cross section in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s)=13 TeV}", howpublished = "{HEPData (collection)}", year = 2017, note = "\url{https://doi.org/10.17182/hepdata.69538}" }

or, if you prefer, a specific version of the record:

@misc{hepdata.69538.v1, author = "{CMS Collaboration}", title = "{Measurement of the top quark pair production cross section in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s)=13 TeV (Version 1)}", howpublished = "{HEPData (collection)}", year = 2017, note = "\url{https://doi.org/10.17182/hepdata.69538.v1}" }

You can also cite the 1 data table individually.
