Description

A measurement of the Z(→μ+μ−)+jet production cross-section in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy s√=7 TeV is presented. The results show good agreement with theoretical predictions at the second-order expansion in the coupling of the strong interaction. We also report about the observation of associated production of a Z boson with a D meson
