Distribution of the W boson transverse mass in the WZ 3l signal region. Events from conversions, and DY processes are grouped into the 'Others' category. The vertical error bars represent the statistical uncertainty in the data and the shaded band the uncertainty in the prediction. The signal contributions are scaled to the measured cross sections (postfit).

Results obtained in this analysis and other diboson production cross section measurements at different center-of-mass energies for the CMS, ATLAS, CDF, and D0 Collaborations are presented, and compared with the NNLO QCD x NLO EW and NLO predictions from MATRIX. The vertical error bars represent the uncertainty in the measured cross section.

Cross sections (fb) at large Z $p_{T}$ values in the Z -> $\ell\ell$ and Z -> $\nu\nu$ channels, and their combination. The theoretical predictions from Madgraph at NLO in QCD and corrected to NLO in electroweak using the NNPDF 3.0 are also reported. With the exception of the largest Z $p_{T}$ bin, the statistical uncertainties in the measurements are much smaller than the systematic uncertainties. Both measurements and predictions correspond to $\sigma \mathcal{B}(Z -> \ell\ell)$, where $\sigma$ is the total fiducial cross section, $\mathcal{B}$ is the branching fraction, and $\ell$ is a charged lepton. The $Z -> \nu\nu$ measurement corresponds to $\sigma \mathcal{B}(Z -> \ell\ell)/\mathcal{B}(Z -> \nu\nu)$.

Fiducial cross section for the production of $W^+W^-$ +0-jets as the $p_T$ threshold for jets is varied. The fiducial region is defined by two opposite-sign leptons with $p_T > 20$GeV and |$\eta$| < 2.5 excluding the products of tau lepton decay, and $m_{\ell\ell} > 20$GeV, $p_T^{\ell\ell} > 30$GeV, and $p_T^{\mathrm{miss}} > 30$GeV. Jets must have $p_T$ above the stated threshold, |$\eta$| < 4.5, and be separated from each of the two leptons by dR > 0.4. The total uncertainty is reported.
