Table 7.

Results in the on-Z SRs (SR-Z). The flavour symmetric, Z/γ+jets and fake-lepton background components are all derived using data-driven estimates described in the text. All other backgrounds are taken from MC simulation. The displayed uncertainties include the statistical and systematic uncertainty components combined
