In the first measurement, we compare kinematic distributions of the $Z/\\gamma^*$ and the jets as well as various angles of the $Z$+jet system with different Monte Carlo event generators and next-to-leading order perturbative QCD (NLO pQCD) predictions with non-perturbative corrections applied. In the second measurement, we compare the results with NLO pQCD predictions, covering photon transverse momenta 30-150 GeV, photon rapidities $|y^{\\gamma}| < 1.0$, jet rapidities $|y^{jet}| < 0.8$, and jet transverse momenta $p_{T}^{jet} > 15$ GeV.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-10-19T13:41:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "cross sections", "d0 detector", "measurement", "photon plus heavy flavor production", "inclusive photon plus heavy flavor" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 834413 } } }
