Description
Production of a Z boson in association with b jets is a background in multiple searches for physics beyond the Standard Model, as well as in different searches for the Higgs boson. Furthermore, the measurement of the Z+b cross section can be used to measure PDFs and to test the predictions from theory. In this talk the measurement of the Z+b cross-section, using a sample of 2.1fb-1 of proton-proton collisions collected at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the CMS experiment, is presented, and compared with predictions from MC event generators.
