-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 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)  
 + 
 +2the description ​of the systematic ​uncertainties ​(and of the table with the signal selection efficiency systematics) could benefit from a less concise exposition.

-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
