This note presents the results on the study of \WZ\ production |
26 |
|
based on a full simulation of the CMS detector. \WZ production in \pp\ |
27 |
|
collisions at the LHC mainly proceeds through quark annihilation into |
28 |
|
an intermediate W boson, see Figure~\ref{fig:graph}. Cross section of |

section~\ref{sec:ana} details the analysis strategy and summarises the |
43 |
|
analysis yield; section~\ref{sec:systematics} discusses the evaluation |

of systematic uncertainties; section~\ref{sec:results} illustrates the |
