1 benhoob 1.1 %\section{Preselection yields}
2     %\label{sec:yields}
3    
4     The data yields and corresponding MC predictions after this event preselection
5     are given in Table~\ref{tab:yields}. The MC yields are normalized to~\lumifinal\ using
6     next-to-leading order (NLO) cross sections. At the current LHC luminosity, the mean
7     number of expected pile-up interactions is approximately 5. In the MC, pile-up interactions
8     are superimposed on the hard collision, and the MC is reweighted such that the distribution
9     of reconstructed primary vertices matches that in data. As expected, the MC predicts that the
10     sample passing the preselection is dominated by dilepton $t\bar{t}$. The data yield is in
11     reasonable agreement with the prediction. We also quote the yields for
12     the LM1 and LM3 benchmark scenarios.

16     \caption{\label{tab:yields} Data yields and MC predictions after preselection, using the quoted NLO production cross sections $\sigma$.
17     The \ttll\ corrresponds to dilepton $t\bar{t}$, including
18     $t \to W \to \ell$; \tttau\ corresponds to dilepton $t\bar{t}$ in which at least 1 $W$ decays via
19     $t \to W \to \tau \to \ell$; \ttfake\ includes all other $t\bar{t}$ decay modes.
20     The samples of MC $t\bar{t}$, $W^{\pm}$ + jets, and single-top events were
21     generated with \MADGRAPH. The Drell--Yan sample (which includes events with
22     invariant masses as low as 10\GeVcc) was generated using a mixture of \MADGRAPH\ and
23     \PYTHIA and contains decays to the $\tau^+\tau^-$ final state. All other samples were generated with \PYTHIA.
24     The LM0 and LM1 benchmark scenarios are defined in the text; the quoted $\sigma$ values refer to the total production
25     cross section for SUSY particles in these scenarios. Uncertainties are statistical only.
