Abstract
The production of vector bosons (V = W, Z, or γ) 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 vector bosons produced in association with jets (and heavy flavour quarks) are presented. The data have been recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC and are compared to next-to(-next-to)-leading-order calculations and event simulations that devise matrix element calculations interfaced with parton showers.
