Description
The production of electroweak bosons (W, Z or gamma) in association with jets is a stringent
test of perturbative QCD and is a background process in searches for new physics. Total and
differential cross-section measurements of electroweak bosons produced in association with jets
(and heavy flavour quarks) in proton-proton collisions are presented. The data have been
recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC and are compared to the predictions of event
generators and theoretical calculations.
