CERN-LHC. Measurements of cross sections for final states containing a W boson and hadronic jets in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The data is from the full 2010 sample with a total integrated luminosity of 36 pb^{-1}. Cross sections are measured in both the electron and muon decay modes of the W and are presented as a function of inclusive jet multiplicity up to five jets. For each multiplicity, cross sections are determined as a function of (1) each jet PT, (2) the scalar sum (HT) of the PT of the charged lepton, missing PT and all jets, (3) the invariant mass of the jets and (4) rapidity distributions of various combinations of leptons and jets. The results are corrected for all detector effects and all known backgrounds. Comparative results are also shown for particle-level predicitions from ALPGEN, SHERPA and BLACKHAT-SHERPA. A separate link gives the Non-Perturbative and QED correction for each table.
