Description
We study the multiple soft gluon radiation effects in Z boson plus jet production at the LHC. By applying the transverse momentum dependent factorization formalism, the large logarithms introduced by the small total transverse momentum of the Z boson plus jet final state system, are resummed to all orders in the expansion of the strong interaction coupling at the accuracy of Next- to-Leading Logarithm(NLL). We also compare our results with the CMS data by the reweighting method to include the effects from Z boson decay and the kinematical cuts on the leptons . It shows our resummation calculation agree with data very well for both the total transverse momentum and the azimuthal angle correlations of the final state Z boson and jet system
