The inclusive cross-section for jet production
in association with a Z boson decaying into an electron–
positron pair is measured as a function of the transverse
momentum and the absolute rapidity of jets using 19.9 fb−1
of
√
s = 8 TeV proton–proton collision data collected with
the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The measured
Z + jets cross-section is unfolded to the particle level.
The cross-section is compared with state-of-the-art StandardModel
calculations, including the next-to-leading-order
and next-to-next-to-leading-order perturbative QCD calculations,
corrected for non-perturbative and QED radiation
effects. The results of the measurements cover final-state
jets with transverse momenta up to 1 TeV, and show good
agreement with fixed-order calculations.
