To illustrate how much signal is expected to populate these control |
| 192 |
|
regions, we examine signal points near the edge of the analysis |
| 193 |
|
sensitivity (m(stop) = 450 m($\chi^0$) = 0 for T2tt, m(stop) = 450 |
| 194 |
< |
m($\chi^0$) = 0, x=0.75 for T2bw) |
| 194 |
> |
m($\chi^0$) = 0, x=0.75 for T2bw). |

|
Table~\ref{tab:signalcontamination} compares the expected signal |
| 196 |
|
yields and the raw total MC background prediction in the control |
| 197 |
|
regions with the \met\ and \mt\ requirements corresponding to SRB, SRC |
| 198 |
|
and SRD (these are the signal regions that dominate the |
| 199 |
|
sensitivity). The signal contamination is smaller than the uncertainty |
| 200 |
< |
on the dilepton background and smaller than the signal/background in |
| 200 |
> |
on the dilepton background (10\%, 15\%, and 25\% for SRB, SRC, SRD, respectively) and smaller than the signal/background in |
| 201 |
|
the signal regions. |

Based on the fact that the CR4 and CR5 are not used to extract |
| 203 |
|
data/MC scale factors and that we do not observe evidence for signal |
