The uncertainties on the mistagged NTMJ background include the statis- tical uncertainty on the sample after loose selection, to which the mistag probability is applied; the statistical uncertainty on the mistag proba- bility itself, ranging from <1% at 1TeV/c2 to ≈10% at 3TeV/c2; and the systematic uncertainty on the mistag probability application, as de- scribed in section 3.3, which is in the range of 1 to 5% depending on the tt ̄ mass. The total background uncertainty is ≈5% for the low-mass region, dominated by the systematic uncertainty, and ≈100% for the high-mass region, dominated by statistical uncertainty associated with the sample after loose selection.

Abstract
The uncertainties on the mistagged NTMJ background include the statis- tical uncertainty on the sample after loose selection, to which the mistag probability is applied; the statistical uncertainty on the mistag proba- bility itself, ranging from <1% at 1TeV/c2 to ≈10% at 3TeV/c2; and the systematic uncertainty on the mistag probability application, as de- scribed in section 3.3, which is in the range of 1 to 5% depending on the tt ̄ mass. The total background uncertainty is ≈5% for the low-mass region, dominated by the systematic uncertainty, and ≈100% for the high-mass region, dominated by statistical uncertainty associated with the sample after loose selection.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
