Abstract (data abstract)
CERN-LHC. Differential cross sections for a W boson produced in association with jets are measured in a data sample of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded with the CMS detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.2 inverse femtobarns. The W bosons are identified through their decay into a muon and a neutrino. The cross sections are reported as functions of jet multiplicity, jet transverse momenta, jet rapidity, the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta (HT), and angular correlations between the muon and each jet for different jet multiplicities. The cross sections are measured in the fiducial region defined by a muon with pT > 25 GeV and pseudorapidity |eta| < 2.4, and by a transverse mass between the muon and the missing transverse energy MT > 50 GeV. Jets are reconstructed using the anti-kT algorithm with a distance parameter R = 0.4, and only jets with pT > 30 GeV, rapidity |y| < 2.4, and a separation of deltaR > 0.4 from the muon are considered. In addition, the differential cross section is measured as a function of the angular distance (DeltaR) between the muon and the closest jet for events with one or more jets, requiring jets with pT > 100 GeV and the leading jet with pT > 300 GeV.
