Invariant mass $m_{\mu\mu}$ distributions in the $N_{\mathrm{b}} = 1$ category, shown together with the corresponding selected background functional forms used as input to the $discrete~profiling$ method when probing the $m_{\mathrm{Z'}}=500~\mathrm{GeV}$ hypothesis. The expected signal distribution for the LFU model described in Eq. (1), with couplings $|g_{\ell}| = |g_{\nu}| = |g_{\mathrm{b}}| = 0.03$ and $\delta_{\mathrm{bs}}=0$, is overlaid. The displayed mass range corresponds to the fit window used for this $m_{\mathrm{Z'}}$ hypothesis, which is $\pm 10\, \sigma_{\mathrm{mass}}$ around the probed $m_{\mathrm{Z'}}$ value. While the likelihood fits are performed on unbinned data, here we present the data in binned histograms with binning chosen to reflect the size of $\sigma_{\mathrm{mass}}$.

Observed limits at 95% CL on $\sigma \mathcal{B} (X \to Y(gg)g) \mathcal{A}$ for a cascade decay trijet resonance. The acceptance $\mathcal{A}$ is defined as $\mathcal{A} = N$(events with $m_{X}^{GEN} > 85\% m_{X}^{input}$) / $N$(events generated in the full phase space defined by the CMS default generator settings).
