Production of W and Z bosons in heavy-ion collisions with CMS

Weak boson do not participate in the strong interaction, and thus constitute clean probes of the initial state of nucleus-nucleus collisions. The comparison of their production cross sections in pp and in nuclear collisions provides constraints on the nuclear parton distribution functions. Despite t...
