Measurement of Inclusive W and Z Boson Production Cross Sections in pp Collisions at √s = 8 TeV

A measurement of total and fiducial inclusive W and Z boson production cross sections in pp collisions at √s = 8  TeV is presented. Electron and muon final states are analyzed in a data sample collected with the CMS detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 18.2 ± 0.5  pb[superscript −1]...
