Inclusive and differential cross sections are measured for events containing a Z boson decaying to electrons or muons and produced in association with up to seven jets with p(T) > 30GeV and vertical bar y vertical bar < 2.5. Predictions from different Monte Carlo generators based on leading-order and nextto-leading-order matrix elements for up to two additional partons interfaced with parton shower and fixed-order predictions at next-to-leading order and next-to-next-to-leading order are compared with the measured cross sections. Good agreement within the uncertainties is observed for most of the modelled quantities, in particular with the generators which use next-to-leading-order matrix elements and the more recent next-to-next-to-leading-order fixed-order predictions.", optnote="WOS:000402676500001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=3368), last updated on Mon, 27 Nov 2017 12:16:27 +0000", issn="1434-6044", doi="10.1140/epjc/s10052-017-4900-z", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1702.05725", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-017-4900-z", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1702.05725", language="English" }
