Measurements of the production of a vector boson in association with jets in the ATLAS and CMS detectors

The production of a vector boson (V = W, Z) in association with jets is can be used for a precise test of perturbative QCD and is a dominant background process in many searches for physics beyond the Standard Model. The differential cross section measurements from CMS and ATLAS collaborations would be presented, and several theoretical predictions at leading order (LO) and next-to leading order (NLO) are compared to data, after the deconvolution of detector effects, with proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy of 7, 8 and 13 TeV at LHC.
