\section{Optimal-observable statistical analysis}
\label{sec:optimal}
There are nine different functions entering Eq.~\ref{eq:optimal}, and eight form factors $\delta_i$ to be evaluated from a given sample of ${\rm t \bar t}$ events. In principle, all eight form factors and their uncertainties can be determined simultaneously. Experimentalists usually maximize numerically a global likelihood $L$ -- or equivalently, minimize the negative Log-likelihood
$-\log L$ ($-\log L$) -- with respect to all form factors:
\begin{equation}
L = {\mu^N \over N!}{\rm e}^{-\mu} \times \prod_{k=1}^N p(k),
\end{equation}
