Compared to previous analyses that only considered the dielectron channel, the ability to compare consistency between the two channels can only help to increase confidence in the accuracy of the measurement.

Notes

  1. 1.

    We use the CP version of the code and grid files.

  2. 2.

    The bin purity is defined as the fraction of events in each bin at generator level, which are also in the same bin at detector level.
