We present the results of electroweak studies performed using data collected in 2010 at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV by the CMS experiment at the LHC. Besides their intrinsic interest as unique samples to calibrate and understand the CMS detector response to leptons, jets and missing energy, events containing W and Z bosons appear as dominant components in many Higgs seaches and in most of...

105. Recent EWK results from ATLAS (20'+5')

Matthias Schott (CERN)

The talk will summarize recent results in W/Z production for the full 2010 data sample. These results include the inclusive W/Z cross-sections, the W asymmetry, the PT(Z) distribution, and studies of W+jets and Z+jets production. Many comparisons with state of the art calculations are included. First results on di-boson production will also be presented, including WW, WZ, and W/Z+gamma...
