Descripción
The transverse momentum spectra of weak vector bosons are measured in
the CMS experiment at the LHC. The measurement uses a sample of
proton-proton collisions at √{s}=8 TeV, collected during a special
low-luminosity running that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of
18 .4 ± 0 .5 pb-1. The production of W bosons is
studied in both electron and muon decay modes, while the production of Z
bosons is studied using only the dimuon decay channel. The ratios of
W- to W+ and Z to W differential cross sections
are also measured. The measured differential cross sections and ratios
are compared with theoretical predictions up to next-to-next leading
order in QCD.
