Background fit results for the hard-lepton and soft-lepton signal regions, for an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb-1. Uncertainties in the fitted background estimates combine statistical (in the simulated event yields) and systematic uncertainties. The uncertainties in this table are symmetrised for propagation purposes but truncated at zero to remain within the physical boundaries.

Breakdown of upper limits. The columns show from left to right: the name of the respective signal region; the 95% confidence level (CL) upper limits on the visible cross-section and on the number of signal events the 95% CL upper limit on the number of signal events, given the expected number (and $\pm 1 \sigma$ variations on the expectation) of background events; the two-sided CLb value, i.e. the confidence level observed for the background-only hypothesis and the one-sided discovery p-value (p(s = 0)). The discovery p-values are capped to 0.5 in the case of observing less events than the fitted background estimates.
