Events with exactly two leptons ($ee$, $\\mu\\mu$, or $e\\mu$) and two $b$-tagged jets that satisfy a multi-particle invariant mass requirement are selected from $36.1$ fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data taken at $\\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2015 and 2016. The results are compared with predictions from simulations using various strategies for the interference. The standard prescriptions for interference modeling are significantly different from each other but are within $2\\sigma$ of the data. State-of-the-art predictions that naturally incorporate interference effects provide the best description of the data in the measured region of phase space most sensitive to these effects. These results provide an important constraint on interference models and will guide future model development and tuning.","hasPart":[{"@id":"https://doi.org/10.17182/hepdata.83544.v2/t1","@type":"Dataset","description":"The minimax-mbl distribution in the three-b-tag region, constructed from the two b-jets with largest transverse momentum.
