A measurement of the Z boson transverse momentum distribution, and of the ZZ and WZ production cross sections using 7.3-8.6 fb⁻¹ of pp̄ collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV

Two analyses are performed with the large samples of dielectron and dimuon events collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron pp̄ collider. The dilepton transverse momentum (pT) distribution in Z/γ*→e⁺e⁻ production is a powerful probe of Quantum chromodynamics. Until now, this distributi...
