Limits at 95% confidence level for the masses of the DM particle, which is assumed to be Dirac fermion, and its associated mediator, in a simplified model of DM production via a vector mediator.

The m_{&#8467;&#8467;} and m_T2 distributions (right) have all the SR requirements applied. Background processes containing fewer than two prompt leptons are categorized as `Fake/nonprompt'. The category `Others' contains rare backgrounds from triboson, Higgs boson, and the remaining top-quark production processes listed in Table 1. The uncertainty bands plotted include all statistical and systematic uncertainties. The last bin includes overflow. The dashed lines represent benchmark signal samples corresponding to the Higgsino H&#771; and slepton &#8467;&#771; simplified models. Orange arrows in the Data/SM panel indicate values that are beyond the y-axis range.

<b>Upper Limits 1</b> The first two columns present observed (N_obs) and expected (N_exp) event yields in the inclusive signal regions. The latter are obtained by the background-only fit of the control regions, and the errors include both statistical and systematic uncertainties. The next two columns show the observed 95% CL upper limits on the visible cross-section (&lang;&epsilon;&sigma;&rang;_obs⁹⁵) and on the number of signal events (S_obs⁹⁵). The fifth column (S_exp⁹⁵) shows what the 95% CL upper limit on the number of signal events would be, given an observed number of events equal to the expected number (and +- 1 &sigma; deviations from the expectation) of background events. The last column indicates the discovery p-value (p(s = 0)), which is capped at 0.5.

<b>Cutflow 1</b> Observed event yields and exclusion fit results with the signal strength parameter set to zero for the exclusive electroweakino and slepton signal regions.
