Measurement of the cross section of top quark-antiquark pair production in association with a W boson in proton-proton collisions at SQUARE ROOTs=13 TeV

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The production of a top quark-antiquark pair in association with a W boson (t (t) over barW) is measured in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13TeV. The analyzed data was recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb(-1). Events with two or three leptons (electrons and muons) and additional jets are selected. In events with two leptons, a multiclass neural network is used to distinguish between the signal and background processes. Events with three leptons are categorized based on the number of jets and of jets originating from b quark hadronization, and the lepton charges. The inclusive t (t) over barW(+) production cross section in the full phase space is measured to be 868 +/- 40(stat)+/- 51(syst) fb. The t (t) over barW(+) and t (t) over barW(-) cross sections are also measured as 553 +/- 30(stat)+/- 30(syst) and 343 +/- 26(stat)+/- 25(syst) fb, respectively, and the corresponding ratio of the two cross sections is found to be 1.61 +/- 0.15(stat)(-0.05)(+0.07)(syst). The measured cross sections are larger than but consistent with the standard model predictions within two standard deviations, and represent the most precise measurement of these cross sections to date.
