The data, together with SM expectations is presented

in Figure~\ref{fig:abcdData}. We see 1 event in the
|

signal region (region $D$). The Standard Model MC

expectation is 1.4 events.

\subsection{Background estimate from the ABCD method}

|

The data yields in the
|
| 24 |
four regions are summarized in Table~\ref{tab:datayield}.
|
| 25 |
The prediction of the ABCD method is is given by $A\times C/B$ and
|
| 26 |
is 1.5 $\pm$ 0.9 events (statistical uncertainty only, assuming
|
| 27 |
Gaussian errors), as shown in Table~\ref{tab:datayield}.

\subsection{Background estimate from the $P_T(\ell\ell)$ method}
|
| 67 |
\label{sec:victoryres}
|
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
We first use the $P_T(\ell \ell)$ method to predict the number of events
|
| 70 |
in control region A, defined in Sec.~\ref{sec:abcd} as
|
| 71 |
$125<{\rm SumJetPt}>300$~GeV and $\met/\sqrt{\rm SumJetPt}>$8.5.
|
| 72 |
We count the number of events in region
|
| 73 |
$A'$, defined in Sec.~\ref{sec:othBG} by replacing the above $\met/\sqrt{\rm SumJetPt}$
|
| 74 |
cut with the same cut on the quantity $P_T(\ell\ell)/\sqrt{\rm SumJetPt}$,
|
| 75 |
and find $N_{A'}=6$. To predict the yield in region A we take
|
| 76 |
$N_A = K \cdot K_C \cdot N_{A'} = 10.4 \pm 4.2$
|
| 77 |
(statistical uncertainty only, assuming Gaussian errors),
|
| 78 |
where we have taken $K = 1.73$ and $K_C = 1$. This yield is in good
|
| 79 |
agreement with the observed yield of 11 events, as shown in
|
| 80 |
Table~\ref{tab:victory_control} and displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:victory} (left).
|
| 81 |
|
| 82 |
Encouraged by the good agreement between predicted and observed yields
|
| 83 |
in the control region, we proceed to perform the $P_T(\ell \ell)$ method
|
| 84 |
in the signal region ${\rm SumJetPt}>300$~GeV.
|
| 85 |
The number of data events in region $D'$, which is defined in
|
| 86 |
Section~\ref{sec:othBG} to be the same as region $D$ but with the
|
| 87 |
$\met/\sqrt{\rm SumJetPt}$ requirement
|
| 88 |
replaced by a $P_T(\ell\ell)/\sqrt{\rm SumJetPt}$ requirement,
|
| 89 |
is $N_{D'}=2$.
|
| 90 |
We next subtract off the expected DY contribution of
|
| 91 |
$N_{DY}$ = $0.4 \pm 0.4$ events, as calculated
|
| 92 |
in Sec.~\ref{sec:othBG}. The BG prediction is
|
| 93 |
$N_D = K \cdot K_C \cdot (N_{D'}-N_{DY}) = 2.5 \pm 2.2$ (statistical
|
| 94 |
uncertainty only, assuming Gaussian errors), where $K=1.54 \pm xx$
|
| 95 |
as derived in Sec.~\ref{sec:victory} and $K_C = 1$.
|
| 96 |
This prediction is consistent with the observed yield of
|
| 97 |
1 event, as summarized in Table~\ref{tab:victory_signal} and Fig.~\ref{fig:victory}
|
| 98 |
(right).

\subsection{Summary of results}
|
| 153 |
To summarize: we see no evidence for an anomalous
|
| 154 |
rate of opposite sign isolated dilepton events
|
| 155 |
at high \met and high SumJetPt. The extraction of
|
| 156 |
quantitative limits on new physics models is discussed
|
| 157 |
in Section~\ref{sec:limit}. |
