Summary of the impact on the analysis of different sources of systematic uncertainty. The impact is estimated as the absolute value of the difference between the expected upper limit with all sources of uncertainty included and the upper limit with a subset of systematic uncertainties excluded.

These weight the SM events assuming the SM cross section, whilst the TRSM and Generic resonance events are weighted to 50 fb. Jet trigger scale factors are applied from the third row onwards. NNJVT scale factors are applied from the fourth row onwards. Scale factors associated to the b-tagging calibration are applied in the last three rows.

Event yields and associated uncertainties after the global likelihood fit of the differential regions. The total background yield can differ from the sum of the individual components due to rounding. The five STXS volumes are labeled pT0–pT4 corresponding to pTH < 300 GeV, 300 – 450 GeV, 450 – 650 GeV, 650 – 1000 GeV, and > 1000 GeV, respectively. The pT0 event yield is constrained to its SM value within the theoretical and experimental uncertainties and free parameters act independently on the remaining four volumes.
