- | 1. it is not clear how b-tagging, the uncertainty on efficiency of which is up to 60%, can increase the sensitivity by 50%. Can you explain ? Table 2 is very important, but not very clear in understanding the origin and effect of the uncertainties. | + | 1. in the background modelling section you mention that " any possible systematic bias from the choice of the functional form is small compared to the statistical uncertainty of the fit" but you never mentioned quantitatively the magnitude (or range of magnitude) of such statistical uncertainty (can only be seen from the plots) |
+ | |||
+ | 2. the description of the systematic uncertainties (and of the table with the signal selection efficiency systematics) could benefit from a less concise exposition. | ||

+ | L 82/87 corrected for zero-suppression effects --> why is this one correction mentioned above the many others that are applied to ECAL and HCAL energy deposits? | ||
- | The silicon tracker measures charged particles within the pseudorapidity range |η| < 2.5. For nonisolated particles of 1 < pT < 10 GeV and |η| < 1.4, the track resolutions are typically 1.5% in pT and 25–90 (45–150) μm in the transverse (longitudinal) impact parameter [20]. | + | L104 candidates in a cone ∆R --> in a cone of radius ∆R |

- | L62 At larger values of |η|, the size of the towers increases and the matching ECAL | + | L112 The 8 TeV analysis employs the Cambridge–Aachen (CA) clustering algorithm [25], while the 13 TeV analysis uses the anti-kt algorithm --> what are the main reasons/pros for the two choices? (once such a difference is pointed out in a text, the reader would like to know why) |
- | arrays contain fewer crystals. ? | + | |
- | L 87 corrected for zero-suppression effects what does that mean exactly? | + | L118 The requirement on jet "eta" allows to further suppress the background from γ+jets and QCD multijet events --> not 100% clear, further suppress with respect to what? |
- | L104 candidates in a cone ∆R --> in a cone of radius | + | L158 a resonance somewhat broader --> could you avoid the qualifier "somewhat"? |

- | L158 a resonance somewhat broader --> can one avoid "somewhat"? | ||

- | L164-169 one would like to know maybe what you would expect to gain in 2015 with the different (more uptodate ?) choice of MC generators. | ||

- | L249 Most of the uncertainties affect the overall signal efficiency, and only the b tagging efficiency uncertainty can result in signal category migration. --> is one worst than the other? is one going to affect more the result on the search? | + | L249 Most of the uncertainties affect the overall signal efficiency, and only the b tagging efficiency uncertainty can result in signal category migration. --> is one worst than the other? is one going to affect more the result? |
- | L270 The background-only fit is consistent with both 8 and 13 TeV data. --> what does that mean exactly? | + | L270 The background-only fit is consistent with both 8 and 13 TeV data. --> please rewrite it in a less concise format |
