The first method uses the dijet invariant mass distribution while the second more sensitive method uses matrix-element calculations. The result from the second method has a signal significance of 5.4 sigma and is the first observation of WW + WZ production using this signature. Combining the results gives sigma(WW+WZ) = 16.0 +/- 3.3 pb, in agreement with the standard model prediction.", optnote="ISI:000275543500009", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=293), last updated on Mon, 21 Feb 2011 12:23:22 +0000", issn="0031-9007", doi="10.1103/PhysRevLett.104.101801", opturl="http://arXiv.org/abs/0911.4449", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.104.101801", language="English" }
