Abstract
The cross sections for the production of $t\bar{t}b\bar{b}$ and ${t\bar{t}jj}$ and their ratio $\sigma_{t\bar{t}b\bar{b}}/\sigma_{t\bar{t}jj}$ are measured using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 fb$^{-1}$ collected in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$=13 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. Events with two leptons (e or $\mu$) and at least four reconstructed jets, including at least two identified as b quark jets, in the final state are selected. In the full phase space, the measured ratio is 0.022 $\pm$ 0.003 (stat) $\pm$ 0.006 (syst), the cross section $\sigma_{t\bar{t}b\bar{b}}$ is 4.0 $\pm$ 0.6 (stat) $\pm$ 1.3 (syst) pb and $\sigma_{t\bar{t}jj}$ is 184 $\pm$ 6 (stat) $\pm$ 33 (syst) pb . The measurements are compared with the standard model expectations obtained from a powheg simulation at next-to-leading-order interfaced with pythia.

Metadata are provided both in "article" format (very similar to INSPIRE) as this helps creating very compact bibliographies which can be beneficial to authors and readers, and in "proceeding" format which is more detailed and complete.
