We present measurements of cross sections for production of a leptonically decaying Z boson in
association with a large-radius jet in 13 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC, using 36 fb−1 of data
from the ATLAS detector. Integrated and differential cross sections are measured at particle level in both a
flavor inclusive and a doubly b-tagged fiducial phase space. The large-radius jet mass and transverse
momentum, its kinematic relationship to the Z boson, and the angular separation of b-tagged small-radius
track jets within the large-radius jet are measured. This measurement constitutes an important test of
perturbative quantum chromodynamics in kinematic and flavor configurations relevant to several Higgs
boson and beyond-Standard-Model physics analyses. The results highlight issues with modeling of
additional hadronic activity in the flavor-inclusive selection, and a distinction between flavor-number
schemes in the b-tagged phase space
