Measurement of the transverse momentum of the Z boson and NLO MC tuning

A measurement of the Z/gamma* boson transverse momentum spectrum in proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy of 7 TeV, performed by the ATLAS collaboration at LHC, is reported. The measurement is sensitive to soft resummation effects for small momentum transfers and to perturbative effect...

description A measurement of the Z/gamma* boson transverse momentum spectrum in proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy of 7 TeV, performed by the ATLAS collaboration at LHC, is reported. The measurement is sensitive to soft resummation effects for small momentum transfers and to perturbative effect for large momentum transfers, probing QCD in a unique way. The data are used to tune parton shower Monte Carlo simulations.
