Differential top quark pair production cross sections are measured in the dilepton final states e$^+$e$^-$, $μ^+μ^-$, and e$^\pmμ^\mp$, as a function of kinematic variables of the two-neutrino system: the transverse momentum $p_\mathrm{T}^{νν}$ of the dineutrino system, the minimum distance in azimuthal angle between $\vec{p}_\mathrm{T}^{\,νν}$ and leptons, and in two dimensions in bins of both observables. The measurements are performed using CERN LHC proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV, recorded by the CMS detector between 2016 and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. The measured cross sections are unfolded to the particle level using an unregularized least squares method. Results are compared with predictions by the standard model of particle physics, and found to be in agreement with theoretical calculations as well as Monte Carlo simulations.

Data and MC simulation yields after the event selection, combined for all data-taking periods and split by channels. The uncertainties on the expected yields include systematic and statistical uncertainties. The relative contribution in percent of each process to the total expected yield of a channel is given in parentheses.

Observed (black markers) and expected distributions of leading lepton $p_{T}$ after event selection. The hatched (grey) areas denote the systematic (total) uncertainties in the expected yields. Events from all data-taking periods and all channels are combined. The lower panel of each plot shows the ratio between observed and expected distributions. The last bin includes all events above the plotted range. The entry Background corresponds to the sum of all the SM predictions.

A Measurement of High $P_T$ Correlations in 340-GeV/c pp and 280-GeV/c $\pi^- p$ Reactions

We have measured correlations between single high- p T (1.5< p T <3.5 GeV/ c ) trigger particles on one side of the beam line and groups of particles entering a calorimeter on the opposite side of the beam line. The mean transverse momentum measured in the calorimeter is found to increase with the trigger-particle transverse momentum. The coplanarity of the events increases with trigger-particle transverse momentum. We have compared our data with the predictions of a phenomenological four-jet model. To fit our data we find that we must give large (0.9 GeV/ c ) mean transverse momenta to the constituents of the initial hadrons.
