Distribution of $\min(m_{\mu\mathrm{b}})$ as obtained from simulation in events with $N_{\mathrm{b}} \geq 1$ passing all the other selection requirements. In this search, we require $\min(m_{\mu\mathrm{b}})>175~\mathrm{GeV}$. The stacked histogram displays the expected distribution from the simulation of the SM backgrounds, while the overlaid open histograms illustrate the size and shape of the $\mathrm{Z'}$ contribution from the LFU model described in Eq. (1), for several $\mathrm{Z'}$ mass hypotheses. For illustrative purposes, we choose couplings $|g_{\ell}| = |g_{\nu}| = |g_{\mathrm{b}}| = 0.03$ and $\delta_{\mathrm{bs}}=0$. The contribution of background processes other than DY and $\mathrm{t}\overline{\mathrm{t}}$ is so small that it is only barely visible at the bottom of the stacked histogram. The hatched region indicates the statistical uncertainty arising from the limited size of the SM simulated samples. Histograms are normalized to unit area.

Distributions of $m_{\mu\mu}$ in the $N_{\mathrm{b}}=1$ event category. The stacked histogram displays the expected distribution from the SM background simulation. The overlaid open distributions illustrate the $\mathrm{Z'}$ contribution from the LFU model at $|g_{\ell}| = |g_{\nu}| = |g_{\mathrm{b}}| = 0.03$ and $\delta_{\mathrm{bs}}=0$ for a variety of $\mathrm{Z'}$ mass hypotheses. The observed data are shown as black points with statistical error bars. The hatched region indicates the statistical uncertainty arising from the limited size of the SM simulated samples. The size of the bins increases as a function of $m_{\mu\mu}$. In extracting the results of the search, the background is estimated directly from data, so the SM background simulation is only illustrative in these distributions.

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 $\sigma_{\mathrm{mass}}$.

The background and signal yields and the corresponding uncertainties are obtained after performing a combined fit across all of the CRs and SR or CR-only.

The expected (dotted black) and observed (solid black) upper limits at 95% CL on $\sigma_{T^\prime bq(T^\prime \rightarrow tH)}$ in the hadronic channel displayed as a function of $\rm{M}_{T^\prime}$. The green (yellow) band represents the 68% (95%) of the limit values expected under the background-only hypothesis. The theoretical cross sections for the singlet $T^\prime$ production with representative $\kappa_T$-values fixed at 0.1, 0.15, 0.2 and 0.25 (for $\Gamma/\rm{M}_{T^\prime} < 5\%$) are shown as solid red lines.

Selection of the hadronic signal region for the three BDTs and $\rm{M}_{T^\prime}$ windows.

Selection of the leptonic signal region for the three BDTs and $\rm{M}_{T^\prime}$ windows.

The expected yields of different processes in each signal window for events with a $T^{\prime}$ with mass in the range $\rm{M}_{T^\prime} \in [600, 1200]$ GeV, and the observed number of events in the signal region $m_{\gamma\gamma} \in [115, 135]$. Here, the yields for the $T^\prime$ are for $\kappa_{T}$ fixed at 0.2.

Signal efficiency for the hadronic channel (left) and the leptonic channel (right) in the signal regions as optimized for each of the three different $\rm{M}_{T^\prime}$ ranges, [600, 700], [700, 1000] and [1000, 1200] GeV, represented as red, green and blue curves respectively. The efficiency is defined as the ratio of the events after the final selection to the total expected events.
