Z + jets production in proton collisions

The production of a Z boson with jets in a hard scattering (HS) event in proton-proton collisions, illustrating also the beam-beam remnants (BBR), initial-state radiation (ISR), final-state radiation (FSR), double parton scattering (DPS), fragmentation/hadronization, hadron decay, photon conversion.

This diagram was previously published in Chapter 4 of Experimental Particle Physics.
