Nonfactorization in Van der Meer scans in Run 2

The luminosity measurement of the CMS experiment is calibrated with Van der Meer (VdM) scans in special LHC fills. From two such scans in orthogonal directions (along the $x$ and $y$ axis of the CMS coordinate system), the overlap area of the proton density of the two beams is measured. This method...
