Using events with an opposite-charge electron-muon pair and b-tagged jets, and assuming Standard Model decays, the top-quark-pair production cross section is measured to be rrtt = 850 +/- 3(stat.) +/- 18(syst.) +/- 20(lumi.) pb. The ratio of the ttand the Z-boson production cross sections is also measured, where the Z-boson contribution is determined for inclusive e+e- and mu+mu- events in a fiducial phase space. The relative uncertainty on the ratio is reduced compared to the ttcross section, thanks to the cancellation of several systematic uncertainties. The result for the ratio, Rtt/Z = 1.145 +/- 0.003(stat.) +/- 0.021(syst.) +/- 0.002(lumi.) is consistent with the Standard Model prediction using the PDF4LHC21 PDF set.", optnote="WOS:001136441300001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5901), last updated on Sat, 27 Jan 2024 17:33:24 +0000", issn="0370-2693", doi="10.1016/j.physletb.2023.138376", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.09529", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2023.138376", language="English" }
