Abstract: The top-antitop quark ($\mathrm{ t \bar{t} }$) production cross section is measured for the first time by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV at the CERN LHC, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 42 pb$^{-1}$. The measurement is performed by analyzing events with one electron and one muon and at least two jets. The measured cross section is $\sigma_{\mathrm{ t \bar{t} }} =$ 772 $\pm$ 60 (stat) $\pm$ 62 (syst) $\pm$ 93 (lumi) pb, in agreement with the expectations from the standard model. | ||
