Description

The integrated and differential fiducial cross sections for the production of a W or Z boson in association with a high-energy photon are measured using 7 TeV pp collisions. Events are selected using leptonic decays of the W and Z bosons. The data are used to test the electroweak sector of the Standard Model and search for evidence for new phenomena. The measurements are used to probe anomalous triple-gauge-boson couplings and to search for the production of vector resonances decaying to Zgamma and Wgamma.
