Description

We present a measurement of the shape of the transverse momentum distribution for W boson in the $W \to e\nu$ decay channel using 4.3 fb$^{-1}$ of $ p\bar p$ data at $\sqrt s=$1.96 TeV. The results are compared to QCD predictions both at reconstructed and particle level. We also present a measurement of the shape of the Z boson rapidity using $Z/\gamma^{*} \to\mu^+\mu^- $ events produced in 8.6 fb$^{-1}$ of $ p\bar p$ data. This measurement is compared to NNLO QCD predictions using different sets of parton density functions.
