Overall efficiencies in the STA-STA (green) and TMS-TMS (red) dimuon categories, as well as their combination (black) as a function of $c\tau$ for the HAHM signal events with $m(Z_D) = 20\ GeV$. The solid curves show efficiencies achieved with the 2022 Run 3 triggers, whereas dashed curves show efficiencies for the subset of events selected by the triggers used in the 2018 Run 2 analysis. The efficiency is defined as the fraction of signal events that satisfy the criteria of the indicated trigger as well as the full set of offline selection criteria. The lower panel shows the relative improvement of the overall signal efficiency brought in by improvements in the trigger.

Comparison of the observed (black points) and expected (histograms) numbers of events in nonoverlapping $m_{\mu \mu}$ intervals in the STA-STA dimuon category, in the signal region optimized for the HAHM model. Yellow and green stacked histograms represent mean expected background contributions from QCD and DY, respectively, while statistical uncertainties in the total expected background are shown as hatched histograms.

Weights from b tagging efficiency ratios as functions of the five-jet invariant mass in 2018 data for the high-mass selection, connecting the 2M1L and 3M regions. The red line corresponds to the central value of the transfer function and the shaded area represents the 95% confidence level uncertainty band. For the high-mass analysis only signals with mass above 800GeV are tested, so primarily the lower part of the distribution contributes to the final result.

The five-jet invariant mass distribution in the tH channel (black markers) after the high-mass selection in the QCD multijet 3T control region for the 2018 data set. The histograms are the corresponding reweighted 2M1L distributions. The background distribution is normalized to the number of entries in the data. The shaded area corresponds to the statistical uncertainties in the 2M1L control regions. A potential 900 GeV T' signal (red cross-hatched histogram) is added to the background histogram demonstrating a negligible contribution. Similar results are observed in the tZ channel, and for the other years, but with slightly larger statistical uncertainties.
