Ratio of momentum anisotropy, v2, to initial coordinate anisotropy, epsilon2, versus mid-rapidity charged-particle multiplicity, dNch/deta. These are the data points for d+Au at 200 GeV.

Fiducial $W+b$-jets cross-section correlations of systematic errors in the 2-jet region in bins of $p_T^{b-jet}$ without single-top subtraction.

Multiplicative correction factors for non-perturbative effects and additive corrections for double-parton interactions, derived from the ALPGEN simulation, applied to the MCFM and POWHEG predictions for the comparisons with unfolded results. The non-perturbative uncertainties include the hadronization and underlying event modelling, while the DPI uncertainties are based on the ATLAS measurement of $\sigma_{\rm eff}$.
