5 %simple because there are a few zeros. This text is written
6 %for the full dataset under the assumption that some of these
7 %numbers will not be zero anymore.}

19 The data, together with SM expectations is presented
20 in Figure~\ref{fig:abcdData}. We see $\color{red} 0$
21 events in the signal region (region $D$). The Standard Model
22 MC expectation is {\color{red} 0.4} events.

24 \subsection{Background estimate from the ABCD method}
25 \label{sec:abcdres}
26
27 The data yields in the
28 four regions are summarized in Table~\ref{tab:datayield}.
29 The prediction of the ABCD method is is given by $AC/B$ and
30 is 0.5 events.
31 (see Table~\ref{tab:datayield}.

33 \begin{table}[hbt]

35 \caption{\label{tab:datayield} Data yields in the four
36 regions of Figure~\ref{fig:abcdData}. We also show the
37 SM Monte Carlo expectations.}
38 \begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c||c|}
39 \hline
40 &A & B & C & D & AC/B \\ \hline
41 Data &3 & 6 & 1 & 0 & $0.5^{+x}_{-y}$ \\
42 SM MC &2.5 &11.2 & 1.5 & 0.4 & 0.4 \\
43 \hline

48 %As a cross-check, we can subtract from the yields in
49 %Table~\ref{tab:datayield} the expected DY contributions
50 %from Table~\ref{tab:ABCD-DY} in order to get a ``purer''
51 %estimate of the $t\bar{t}$ contribution. The result
52 %of this exercise is {\color{red} xx} events.

54 \subsection{Background estimate from the $P_T(\ell\ell)$ method}
55 \label{sec:victoryres}
56
57
58 {\color{red}As mentioned previously, for the 11/pb analysis
59 we use the $K$ factor from data and take $K_{\rm fudge}=1$.
60 This will change for the full dataset. We will also pay
61 more attention to the statistical errors.}
62
63 The number of data events in region $D'$, which is defined in
64 Section~\ref{sec:othBG} to be the same as region $D$ but with the
65 $\met/\sqrt{\rm SumJetPt}$ requirement
66 replaced by a $P_T(\ell\ell)/\sqrt{\rm SumJetPt}$ requirement
67 is $N_{D'}=1$. Thus the BG prediction is
68 $N_D = K \cdot K_{\rm fudge} \cdot N_{D'} = 1.5$
69 where we used $K=1.5 \pm xx$ and $K_{\rm fudge}=1.0 \pm 0.0$.
70 Note that if we were to subtract off from region $D'$
71 the {\color{red} 0.4 $\pm$ 0.4} DY events estimated from
72 Section~\ref{sec:othBG}, the background
73 prediction would change to $N_D=0.9 \pm xx$ events.
74 {\color{red} When we do this with a real
75 $K_{\rm fudge}$, the fudge factor will be different
76 after the DY subtraction.}
77
78 As a cross-check, we use the $P_T(\ell \ell)$
79 method to also predict the number of events in the
80 control region $120<{\rm SumJetPt}<300$ GeV and
81 \met/$\sqrt{\rm SumJetPt} > 8.5$. We predict
82 $5.6^{+x}_{-y}$ events and we observe 4.
83 The results of the $P_T(\ell\ell)$ method are
84 summarized in Figure~\ref{fig:victory}.

94 tcMet/$\sqrt{P_T(\ell\ell)}$ in both MC and data.}

99 \subsection{Summary of results}
100 To summarize: we see no evidence for an anomalous
101 rate of opposite sign isolated dilepton events
102 at high \met and high SumJetPt. The extraction of
103 quantitative limits on new physics models is discussed
104 in Section~\ref{sec:limits}.
