Table 3.
List of systematic uncertainties considered. An “N” means that the uncertainty is taken as normalisation-only for all processes and channels affected, whereas an “S” denotes systematic uncertainties that are considered shape-only in all processes and channels. An “SN” means that the uncertainty is taken on both shape and normalisation. Some of the systematic uncertainties are split into several components for a more accurate treatment. This is the number indicated in the column labelled as “Comp.”
