Title: "Measurement of the Inclusive Z+jet(s) Production Cross Section at CDF"

Abstract:

We present preliminary results on inclusive Z boson plus jets production in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1.96\,TeV$. The measurement is based on $1\,fb^{-1}$ of data collected by the CDF experiment from February 2002 to March 2006. Inclusive jet measurements are performed as a function of $p_T^{jet}$ and $|y^{jet}|$ for jets in the region $p_T^{jet} > 30\,GeV/c$ and $|y^{jet}| < 2.1$. Results are compared to NLO perturbative QCD predictions.
