Measured cross section for $\cPZ+\text{ jets}$ as a function of the transverse momentum of the first jet. \citefigfour .

Measured cross section for $\cPZ+\text{ jets}$ as a function of the jet exclusive (left) and inclusive (right) multiplicity. The error bars represent the statistical uncertainty and the grey hatched bands represent the total uncertainty, including the systematic and statistical components. The measurement is compared with different predictions, which are described in the text. The ratio of each prediction to the measurement is shown together with the measurement statistical (black bars) and total (black hatched bands) uncertainties and the prediction (coloured bands) uncertainties. Different uncertainties were considered for the predictions: statistical (stat), ME calculation (theo), and PDF together with the strong coupling constant (\alpS). The complete set was computed for one of the predictions. These uncertainties were added together in quadrature (represented by the $\oplus$ sign in the legend).

Reconstructed data, simulated signal, and background distributions of the inclusive (left) and exclusive (right) jet multiplicity for the electron (upper) and muon (lower) channels. The background distributions are obtained from the simulation, except for the $\PQt\PAQt$ contribution which is estimated from the data as explained in the text. The error bars correspond to the statistical uncertainty. In the ratio plots, they include both the uncertainties from data and from simulation. The set of generators described in Section~\ref{samples} has been used for the simulation.
