Signal differential distributions as a function of four-jet mass for $\alpha_{\mathrm{true}}$ = 0.25, diquark masses of 2, 5, 8.6 TeV and various widths, for all $\alpha$ bins inclusively. The integral of each distribution has been normalized to unity.

The product of acceptance, $A$, and efficiency, $\varepsilon$, of a resonant signal with $\alpha_{\mathrm{true}}$ = 0.25 vs. the diquark mass for various diquark widths, and for all $\alpha$ bins inclusively. The acceptance is defined as the fraction of generated events passing the kinematic selection criteria, while the efficiency is the fraction of signal events satisfying $m_{\mathrm{4j}} > 1.6$ TeV. We also show the signal acceptance alone in the curves where $\varepsilon = 1$.

Ordered list of the 30 systematic uncertainties with the largest impact on the measured signal normalisation in the fit to data in the parton-level measurement considered as nuisance parameters (NPs) in the profile-likelihood fit. The column "NP value, error" corresponds to the nominal best-fit values and the corresponding uncertainties. The impact of each NP, $\Delta\sigma$/$\sigma_{\mathrm{pred}}$, is computed by comparing the nominal best-fit value of the POI ($\sigma$/$\sigma_{\mathrm{pred}}$) with the result of the fits when fixing the considered NP to its best-fit value shifted by its pre-fit and post-fit uncertainties. The corresponding impacts are listed in the "POI impact prefit high/low" and "POI impact high/low" columns, respectively. The "MC stat." NPs represent the MC statistical uncertainty and they enter the likelihood with a Poisson term, while all the other NPs enter the likelihood via a Gaussian term.

This table lists the kinematic requirements on parton-level objects used to define of the fiducial phase space for the parton-level measurement. Frixione isolation ($\href{https://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/9801442}{\text{hep-ph/9801442}}$) with a chosen radius of $\Delta R = 0.2$ is applied to photons ($\gamma$).

This table lists the kinematic requirements on particle-level objects used to define of the fiducial phase space for the particle-level measurement. The particle level objects are photons ($\gamma$) not from a hadron decay, neutrinos not from a hadron decay ($\nu$), prompt electrons and muons ($\ell$) "dressed" by adding close-by ($\Delta R < 0.1$) photons, and anti-$k_t$ $R = 0.4$ jets built from stable particles ($\tau > 30\,$ps) and tau leptons excluding neutrinos and prompt dressed muons. Jets are $b$-tagged ($b$-jet) using ghost-matched $b$-hadrons with $p_{\text{T}} > 5\,$GeV. Apart from the kinematic requirements, isolation and overlap removal criteria are applied. Jets within $\Delta R = 0.4$ of a photon are removed if the $p_{\text{T}}$ of charged particles within $\Delta R = 0.3$ of the photon is smaller than $10\,\%$ of its $p_{\text{T}}$. Jets within $\Delta R = 0.4$ of a lepton are removed. Events are removed where a photon is close ($\Delta R < 0.4$) to a lepton or a surviving jet. The measured fiducial particle-level cross section is $\sigma_{tq\gamma}\times\mathcal{B}(t\rightarrow l\nu b)+\sigma_{t(\rightarrow l\nu b\gamma)q} = 303\pm 9(\text{stat.})^{+33}_{-32}(\text{syst.})\,$fb.
