Measured min-$d_{xy}$ distribution in the 2-match category, after requiring the $d_{xy}$ muon to pass the isolation requirement $I_{\mathrm{rel}}^{\mathrm{PF}} <0.25$ (i. e., the B and D bins of the ABCD plane). Overlaid with a red histogram is the background predicted from the region of the ABCD plane failing the same requirement (the A and C bins), as well as three signal benchmark hypotheses (as defined in the legends), assuming $\alpha_D = \alpha_{\mathrm{EM}}$ (the fine-structure constant). The red hatched bands correspond to the background prediction uncertainty. The last bin includes the overflow.

Two-dimensional exclusion surfaces for $\Delta = 0.1 \, m_1$ as a function of the DM mass $m_1$ and the signal strength $y$, with $m_{A'} = 3 \, m_1$. Filled histograms denote observed limits on $\sigma(\mathrm{pp} \to A' \to \chi_2 \chi_1) \, \mathcal{B}(\chi_2 \to \chi_1 \mu^+ \mu^-)$. Solid (dashed) curves denote the observed (expected) exclusion limits at 95% CL, with 68% CL uncertainty bands around the expectation. Regions above the curves are excluded, depending on the $\alpha_D$ hypothesis: $\alpha_{\mathrm{D}} = \alpha_{\mathrm{EM}}$ (dark blue) or 0.1 (light magenta).

Average timing distributions for SR data and the estimated background as determined by the background-only fit, in each of the five exclusive $\rho$ categories. For comparison, the expected timing shapes for a few different signal models are superimposed, with each model labeled by the values of the $\tilde\chi^0_1$ mass and lifetime, as well as decay mode. To provide some indication of the variations in signal yield and shape, three signal models are shown for each of the $\tilde\chi^0_1$ decay modes, namely $\tilde\chi^0_1$ $\rightarrow$ $H \tilde G$ and $\tilde\chi^0_1$ $\rightarrow$ $Z \tilde G$. The models shown include a rather low $\tilde\chi^0_1$ mass value of 135 GeV for lifetimes of either 2 ns or 10 ns, and a higher $\tilde\chi^0_1$ mass value which is near the 95% CL exclusion limit for each decay mode for a lifetime of 2 ns. Each signal model is shown with the signal normalization corresponding to a BR value of unity for the decay mode in question.

The column "NP value, error" corresponds to the nominal best-fit values and the corresponding uncertainties.

This table lists the kinematic requirements on particle-level objects used to define of the fiducial phase space for the particle-level measurement. The particle level objects are photons ($\gamma$) not from a hadron decay, neutrinos not from a hadron decay ($\nu$), prompt electrons and muons ($\ell$) "dressed" by adding close-by ($\Delta R < 0.1$) photons, and anti-$k_t$ $R = 0.4$ jets built from stable particles ($\tau > 30\,$ps) and tau leptons excluding neutrinos and prompt dressed muons. Jets are $b$-tagged ($b$-jet) using ghost-matched $b$-hadrons with $p_{\text{T}} > 5\,$GeV. Apart from the kinematic requirements, isolation and overlap removal criteria are applied. Jets within $\Delta R = 0.4$ of a photon are removed if the $p_{\text{T}}$ of charged particles within $\Delta R = 0.3$ of the photon is smaller than $10\,\%$ of its $p_{\text{T}}$. Jets within $\Delta R = 0.4$ of a lepton are removed. Events are removed where a photon is close ($\Delta R < 0.4$) to a lepton or a surviving jet. The measured fiducial particle-level cross section is $\sigma_{tq\gamma}\times\mathcal{B}(t\rightarrow l\nu b)+\sigma_{t(\rightarrow l\nu b\gamma)q} = 303\pm 9(\text{stat.})^{+33}_{-32}(\text{syst.})\,$fb.

Results summary.

Bayesian upper exclusion limits on the ratio $g_{W'}/g_{W}$ for an SSM-like W$\prime$ boson are shown. The unity coupling ratio (blue dotted curve) corresponds to the SSM common benchmark. The 68 and 95% quantiles of the limits are represented by the green and yellow bands, respectively.

Bayesian upper exclusion limits at 95% CL on the product of the production cross section and branching fraction of a QBH in an associated $ au$ lepton and neutrino final state. Minimum threshold masses $m_{th}$ of up to 6.6 TeV are excluded at 95% CL. The observed limit (solid line) is obtained from the intersection with the LO QBH cross section (blue dotted curve). The 68 and 95% quantiles of the limits are represented by the green and yellow bands, respectively.

Bayesian upper limits at 95% CL on the cross section of the process $pp\rightarrow\tau\nu$ mediated via LQ exchange in the t-channel. The inner (green) band and the outer (yellow) band indicate the regions containing 68 and 95%, respectively, of the distribution of limits expected under the background-only hypothesis. The predicted LQ cross section at LO in the three coupling benchmark scenarios is depicted in different colors for $g_{U}=1$. The uncertainty bandy correspond to the sum in quadrature of PDF and scale variations. The first benchmark scenario considers only couplings to left-handed SM fermions (i.e. $\beta_{\text{R}}^{ij}=0$) and is referred to as "best fit LH". The second benchmark, referred to as "best fit LH+RH", considers $|\beta_{\text{R}}^{\text{b}\tau}|=1$ and all other $\beta_{\text{R}}^{ij}=0$. In the third "democratic" benchmark, equal couplings only to LH fermions are assumed, i.e. $\beta_{\text{L}}^{ij}=1$ and $\beta_{\text{R}}^{ij}=0$ for all $i$ and $j$.

Observed number of events in the MB SR bins of the multi-b analysis. All bins are defined with $\Delta\phi > 0.75$.

Observed number of events in the MB SR bins of the zero-b analysis.

The simplified likelihood can be constructed using this covariance matrix of nuisance parameters in the signal region (MB SR). The bin contents have been aggregated accross the three years to simplify the likelihood.

Selection efficiency for the multi-b signal for the SRs.

The simplified likelihood can be constructed using this covariance matrix of nuisance parameters in the signal region (MB SR). The bins were aggregated across HT to stabilize the simplified likelihood.

Selection efficiency for the zero-b signal for the SRs. The bins correspond to the aggregated bins that were used for the covariance matrix.
