Events form both W -> e nu and W -> $\mu$nu are used, and the transverse momentum of the W candidates is measured through the energy deposition in the calorimeter from the recoil of the W. The resulting distributions are unfolded to obtain the normalized differential cross sections as a function of the W boson transverse momentum. We present results for p(T)(W) < 300 GeV in the electron and muon channels as well as for their combination, and compare the combined results to the predictions of perturbative QCD and a selection of event generators.", optnote="WOS:000299293600002", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=879), last updated on Thu, 16 Feb 2012 11:13:22 +0000", issn="1550-7998", doi="10.1103/PhysRevD.85.012005", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1108.6308", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.85.012005", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1108.6308", language="English" }
