Measurement of differential cross sections for Z boson pair production in association with jets at $\sqrt{s}= $ 8 and 13 TeV
Phys. Lett. B 789 (2019) 19
Abstract: This Letter reports measurements of differential cross sections for the production of two Z bosons in association with jets in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = $ 8 and 13 TeV. The analysis is based on data samples collected at the LHC with the CMS detector, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 19.7 and 35.9 fb$^{-1}$ at 8 and 13 TeV, respectively. The measurements are performed in the leptonic decay modes $\mathrm{Z}\mathrm{Z}\to\ell^+ \ell^- \ell'^+ \ell'^-$, where $\ell,\ell' = \mathrm{e}$, $\mu$. The differential cross sections as a function of the jet multiplicity, the transverse momentum ${p_{\mathrm{T}}}$, and pseudorapidity of the ${p_{\mathrm{T}}}$-leading and subleading jets are presented. In addition, the differential cross sections as a function of variables sensitive to the vector boson scattering, such as the invariant mass of the two ${p_{\mathrm{T}}}$-leading jets and their pseudorapidity separation, are reported. The results are compared to theoretical predictions and found in good agreement within the theoretical and experimental uncertainties.

Summary
The differential cross sections for the production of Z pairs in the four-lepton final state in association with jets in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 8 and 13 TeV have been measured. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 (35.9) fb$^{-1}$ for a center-of-mass energy of 8 (13) TeV. Cross sections are presented for the production of a pair of Z bosons as a function of the number of jets, the transverse momentum $ {p_{\mathrm{T}}} $, and pseudorapidity of the $ {p_{\mathrm{T}}} $-leading and subleading jets. Distributions of the invariant mass of the two $ {p_{\mathrm{T}}} $-leading jets and their separation in pseudorapidity are also presented. Good agreement is observed between the measurements and the theoretical predictions when next-to-leading order matrix-element calculations are used together with the PYTHIA parton shower simulation. Cross sections for ZZ production in association with jet have been measured with a precision ranging from 10 to 72% (8 to 38%) at 8 (13) TeV, for jet multiplicities ranging from 0 to $\geq$ 3. The systematic uncertainty is of the same size, or smaller, than the statistical one. Analyses using future, larger data sets, with smaller statistical uncertainties, will allow the theoretical prediction of ZZ+jets to undergo more stringent tests.
