Abstract: The first measurement of the top quark pair ( $ \mathrm{t} \overline{\mathrm{t}} $) production cross section in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = $ 13.6 TeV is presented. Data recorded with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC in Summer 2022, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.21 fb$^{-1}$, are analyzed. Events are selected with one or two charged leptons (electrons or muons) and additional jets. A maximum likelihood fit is performed in event categories defined by the number and flavors of the leptons, the number of jets, and the number of jets identified as originating from b quarks. An inclusive $ \mathrm{t} \overline{\mathrm{t}} $ production cross section of 881 $ \pm $ 23 (stat+syst) $ \pm $ 20 (lumi) pb is measured, in agreement with the standard model prediction of 924 $^{+32}_{-40} $ pb. | ||

Comparison of the number of observed (points) and predicted (filled histograms) events in the final analysis binning. The predictions are shown before (upper) and after (lower) fitting the model to the data. The lower panel of each plot displays the ratio of the event yields in data to the sum of predicted signal and background yields. The vertical bars on the points represent the statistical uncertainties in the data, while the hatched bands represent the systematic uncertainty in the predictions, excluding the integrated luminosity. In the lower plot, the hatched bands are greatly reduced due to additional constraint of the nuisances parameters as well as correlations between them. No b jet efficiency scale factors are applied in the upper plot, and no systematic uncertainty entering into the hatched bands is intended to cover these factors, which are free parameters in the fit. |

Summary |
The first measurement of the top quark pair ( $ \mathrm{t} \overline{\mathrm{t}} $) production cross section in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = $ 13.6 TeV is presented. Data recorded with the CMS detector in Summer 2022, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of1.21 fb$^{-1}$, are analyzed. Events are selected with one or two charged leptons (electrons or muons) and additional jets. A profile maximum likelihood fit is performed on categories defined by the number and flavors of the leptons, the total number of jets, and the number of jets identified as originating from b quarks. The fit is used to constrain the uncertainties in the b tagging efficiencies and lepton selection efficiencies. Novel cross-checks are performed on the selected $ \mathrm{t} \overline{\mathrm{t}} $ data sample to verify the lepton selection efficiencies, as well as the jet energy scale, while the cross section result itself is verified by an independent event counting approach in the $ \mathrm{e}^\pm\mu^\mp $ channel. An inclusive $ \mathrm{t} \overline{\mathrm{t}} $ production cross section of 881 $ \pm $ 23 (stat+syst) $ \pm $ 20 (lumi) pb is measured, in agreement with the standard model prediction of 924 $^{+32}_{-40} $ pb. |

Additional Figure 1:
For the nuisance parameters listed in the left column, the pulls $ (\hat{\theta}-\theta_0)/\Delta\theta $ (middle column) and impacts $ \Delta\hat{r} $ (right column) are displayed. The 20 nuisance parameters with the largest impacts in the fit used to determine the $ \mathrm{t} \overline{\mathrm{t}} $ cross section are shown. The impact $ \Delta\hat{r} $ is obtained from varying the nuisance parameter $ \theta $ by $ \pm $ 1 standard deviation ($ \sigma $) and evaluating the induced shift in the $ \mathrm{t} \overline{\mathrm{t}} $ signal strength $ r $. The pull $ (\hat\theta-\theta_0)/\Delta\theta $ is calculated from the values $ \hat{\theta} $ and $ \theta_0 $ after and before the fit of $ \theta $, respectively, and from its uncertainty $ \Delta\theta $ before the fit. The nuisance parameters labeled ``BG model stat.''\refer to the per-bin statistical uncertainties in the predicted yields. The uncertainty associated with the top $ p_{\mathrm{T}} $ correction corresponds to a one-sided variation of the nominal template before the fit, and thus a one-sided impact after the fit is expected. |
