Measurement of the Z/γ* + b-jet cross section in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV

The production of b jets in association with a Z/γ*boson is studied using proton-proton collisions delivered by the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 7TeV and recorded by the CMS detector. The inclusive cross section for Z/γ*+b-jet production is measured in a sample corresponding to an integrated lu...
