W/Z + Jets • High cross section makes them useful… • as a precise luminosity monitor • as a high-statistics detector calibration tool • to demonstrate the performance of the CMS experiment • Good test of pQCD at high Q2 • LHC will reach a regime never probed before! • The mass of the bosons provide the necessary hard scale to perform pQCD calculations • W/Z+Jets are irreducible backgrounds for interesting SM processes (top production) and top searches for new physics (SUSY and Higgs searches) Christos Lazaridis USCMS First Physics Workshop
Datasets • Used data produced for CSA07 • Z+N jets, N = 0…5 • W+N jets, N = 0…5 • ALPGEN 2.12 • GEN-SIM: 1_4_6 • DIGI-RECO: 1_6_0 https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/Main/AlpgenSummer07 Christos Lazaridis USCMS First Physics Workshop
