The cluster efficiency in bins of hadronic and EM energy in region A. Region A is defined as 391 cm $< r <$ 695.5 cm and 400 cm $< |z| <$ 671 cm. The cluster efficiency is estimated with LLPs decaying to $\tau^{+} \tau^{-}$. The sample contains equal fractions of events with LLP mass of 7, 15, 40, and 55 GeV and LLP lifetime of 0.1, 1, 10, and 100m. The first hadronic energy bins correspond to LLPs that decayed leptonically with 0 hadronic energy.

Comparison of the observed data and expected SM background yields in the CRs and VRs of the RJR selection. The SM prediction is taken from the background-only fit. The "FNP leptons" category contains backgrounds from tt&#772;, tW, WW and Z+jets processes. The "Others" category contains backgrounds from Higgs and rare top processes. The hatched band indicates the combined theoretical, experimental, and MC statistical uncertainties. The bottom panel shows the significance of the difference between the observed and expected yields, calculated with the profile likelihood method from [169], adding a minus sign if the yield is below the prediction.

Event yields for the different processes estimated with the fit to the $O_\mathrm{NN}$ distribution compared to the numbers of observed events. Only the statistical uncertainties are quoted.

Cutflow table for three benchmark signal points for the slepton model in SR-low, SR-medium and SR-high for the $ee$ and $\mu\mu$ channels separately. The number of generated events is N RAW, while N WEIGHTED corresponds to the number of events expected in 14.7/fb, after all MC simulation corrections have been applied. The event generation was filtered to require at least two leptons (electrons or muons) with $p_{T}>5$ GeV and $|\eta|<2.8$, with 20000 events required to pass the filter. The corresponding number of unfiltered events is provided in the ``Pre-filter events'' row of the table.
