Description
At LHC, the production cross sections of the W/Z bosons are at tens to
hundreds nanobarns level. Studies of these processes can not only help the
detector commissioning, but also help to establish standard candles for
exploring beyond-the-SM physics, such as searches for Zprime, Wprime
particles. The leptonic decays of W/Z bosons are expected to have very high
trigger efficiency and signal to background ratio, therefore they are ideal
channels to study the W/Z properties, such as cross sections and asymmetries
in details. In this talk, early CMS results on inclusive W/Z productions at
10 TeV center-of-mass energy are discussed.
