Yields estimate Identical to submittedsingle top analysis Data : just apply full selection and tagging. QCD : built an orthogonal sample enriched in fake isolated leptons by reversing isolation cuts. The number of selected events before b-tagging is normalized to the data (Matrix Method), then tagged. Wjj and Wbb : selected Wjj+Wbb are normalized to the data (MM). Relative normalization is done using Wjj and Wbb NLO cross-sections. Tagging weights are applied. (TRFs) ttbar, VV, signal : Events are passed through selection. Trigger weights, tagging weights and Data/MC id correction are applied. Normalization to luminosity and theoritical x-sections.
Matrix Method Estimate fake / real lepton content of the data sample. We used numbers listed on ttbar production webpage Exept for muon fake rate -> introduce eta dependence. average relative error : 4.8%
Taggability New taggability rate functions. Introduce PVz dependence. Estimated on very loose preselected sample. (1 loose lepton, 2 jets, Met, DQ) EMqcd TRF MUqcd TRF
Taggable jet physics η Taggable jet pT Jet multipliciy in events with at least 2 taggable jets Jet multipliciy in events with at least 1 taggable jet Taggability RF : closure plots (MU) On preselected analysis sample (MM loose)
Asymetric b-tagging Use 2 working point instead of one : Tight (~0.3% mistag) and Loose. (~1% mistag) Split dataset in simple and double tag in 2 ways : = 1 Tight (STag) and >= 2 Tight (DTag) =1 Tight, 0 other Loose (STagVeto), at least 1 Tight and 1 Loose (DTagAsym) Asymetric double tag should reduce b-tagging systematics (Loose TRF) , increase double tag statistics and optmize t/s channels separation.
Likelihood discriminant Psignal(x) L= __________________ (Psignal(x) + Pbackground(x) ) Where x is a set of discriminant variables. We use Psignal(x) = ΠPsignal(xi) . This is correct if variables are uncorrelated. Psignal(xi) : Spline of final distributions. If correlations exist (as it is the case), the likelihood will not be as dicriminant as it would be with uncorrelated variable, but the method remains valid. Signal is s-channel or t-channel. Background is Wjj+Wbb+Qcd (simple tag), Wbb only (double tag) or ttbar.

Likelihood bias To increase the statistics, we used the same events to build the likelihood pdfs and to compute envent yields. This may introduce a bias due to sensitivity to statistical fluctuation. s-channel efficiency s-channel efficiency Green : full stat Red : Even/Odd Blue : Odd/Even ttbar efficiency Wbb efficiency To validate the method : reproduce performance curves using 1 events over 2 for pdf, the other for likelihood computation. -> 2 perf curves (even/odd & odd/even)

JES, JER, JId, TRF, Trigger... errors are introduced as histograms (“shape” changing systematics) Other systematics are produced with top_counts.

Summary Analysis very similar to the published one : selection, yields and systematics estimates, limit computation. Improvements : Ipanema dataset (360 pb-1), JES 5.3, JLIP b-tagging. New tools : Asymetric b-tagging : reduces systematics Likelihood discriminant : robust and well known method, if not as sensitive as NN. ---> Improved limits <--- t-channel : 4.44 pb (4.27) - s-channel : 4.97 pb (3.29) Analysis note under EB review : D0Note 4825
