Measurement of the production cross section for single top quarks in association with W bosons in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
A measurement is presented of the associated production of a single top quark and a W boson in proton-proton collisions at √ s = 13 TeV by the CMS Collaboration at the CERN LHC. The data collected corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 . The measurement is performed using events w...

| description | A measurement is presented of the associated production of a single top quark
and a W boson in proton-proton collisions at √
s = 13 TeV by the CMS Collaboration at the
CERN LHC. The data collected corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1
. The
measurement is performed using events with one electron and one muon in the final state
along with at least one jet originated from a bottom quark. A multivariate discriminant,
exploiting the kinematic properties of the events, is used to separate the signal from the
dominant t¯t background. The measured cross section of 63.1 ± 1.8(stat) ± 6.4(syst) ±
2.1 (lumi) pb is in agreement with the standard model expectation |
