Observed event yields in data ('Observed') and expected event yields for SM background processes obtained from the background-only fit ('Total bkg.' and rows below) in the signal regions of the di-tau and single-tau channels. The quoted uncertainties include both the statistical and systematic uncertainties and are truncated at zero yield. By construction, no $t\bar{t}$ (2 real $\tau$) events can pass the selections in the single-tau channel. As the individual uncertainties are correlated, they do not add in quadrature to equal the total background uncertainty.

From left to right: upper limits at the 95% confidence level (CL) on the visible cross section ($\sigma_\text{vis}$) and on the number of signal events ($S_{\text{obs}}^{95}$). The third column ($S_{\text{exp}}^{95}$) shows the upper limit at the 95% CL on the number of signal events, given the expected number (and $\pm 1\,\sigma$ excursions on the expectation) of background events. The last two columns indicate the confidence level observed for the background-only hypothesis ($\text{CL}_{b}$), the discovery $p$-value ($p(s=0)$) and the significance ($Z$). In the di-tau SR, where fewer events are observed than predicted by the fitted background estimate, the $p$-value is capped at 0.5.

Summary of the total efficiencies. Quoted uncertainties correspond to statistical uncertainties of the simulated samples used. For the $B_c^+\to J/\psi \pi^+$ channel, the efficiency $\epsilon_{B_c^+\to J/\psi \pi^+}$ entering the equations for $R_{D_s^{(*)+}/\pi^+}$ is shown, while the efficiency for the full dataset is not defined.

Event yields after a background-only fit and data in the three signal regions. All the backgrounds except the fake $\tau_{\mathrm{had}}$ are estimated using the real $\tau_{\mathrm{had}}$ contributions from MC. The fake $\tau_{\mathrm{had}}$ background contribution is data-driven. The top-quark, $V$+jets, and small backgrounds are included in "Others". The total uncertainties include both systematic and statistical. In the $WW1\ell2\tau_{\mathrm{had}}$ channel, the smaller uncertainty in the total background than the fake $\tau_{\mathrm{had}}$ is due to the anticorrelations between the nuisance parameters of the fake $\tau_{\mathrm{had}}$ and diboson backgrounds obtained in the fit.

Uncertainties on $\sigma(pp\to X\to SH)$ obtained from the combined fit to the data for the least and most sensitive mass points. The uncertainties are symmetrised and grouped into the categories described in the systematic section.

Summary of observed and expected 95\% CL upper limits on the production cross-section of $\sigma(pp\to X\to SH)$ in fb in the combination of $WW$+$ZZ$, and in the $WW$ and $ZZ$ individual channels. The best expected limit is set to 85 fb for $m_{X}$ = 1250 GeV and $_{S}$ = 300 GeV. The combination limits gain about 26--53% over the best individual limit from the $WW1\ell2\tau_{\mathrm{had}}$ channel.
