This measurement uses events with an opposite-charge electron-muon pair in the final state. Jets containing b-quarks are tagged using an algorithm based on track impact parameters and reconstructed secondary vertices. The numbers of events with exactly one and exactly two b-tagged jets are counted and used to determine simultaneously sigma(t (t) over bar) and the efficiency to reconstruct and b-tag a jet from a top quark decay, thereby minimising the associated systematic uncertainties. The cross-section is measured to be: s(t (t) over bar)= 818 +/- 8 (stat) +/- 27 (syst) +/- 19 (lumi) +/- 12 (beam) pb, where the four uncertainties arise from data statistics, experimental and theoretical systematic effects, the integrated luminosity and the LHC beam energy, giving a total relative uncertainty of 4.4{\%}. The result is consistent with theoretical QCD calculations at next-to-next-to-leading order. A fiducial measurement corresponding to the experimental acceptance of the leptons is also presented.", optnote="WOS:000384469900023", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=2934), last updated on Thu, 16 Feb 2017 15:45:00 +0000", issn="0370-2693", doi="10.1016/j.physletb.2016.08.019", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1606.02699", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2016.08.019", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1606.02699", language="English" }
