Description
We present measurements of differential cross sections in
inclusive Z/gamma plus jet production in a data sample of
1fb-1 collected with the D0 detector in proton antiproton
collisions at sqrt(s)=1.96TeV. Measured variables include
the Z/gamma transverse momentum (pT-Z), and rapidity (y-Z),
the leading jet pT (pT-jet), and rapidity (y-jet), as well
as various angles of the Z+jet system. We compare the results
to different Monte Carlo event generators and to next-to-leading
order perturbative QCD (NLO pQCD) predictions, with non-perturbative
corrections applied.
