2011 Post-doctoral research fellow INFN – Sezione di Torino Torino, Italy I am carrying out my research activity in high-energy particle phyiscs at the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Geneva. My recent activity in CMS has been focused on the study of the alignment of the Inner Tracker Detector. Exploiting the experience acquired on tracking and vertexing at CMS, I have joined the Electroweak Physics Working Group, focusing on the measurement of the production cross-section for the process pp → Z + b-jets (Z→ ll). The production of the Z boson in association with bottom quarks is an important measurement at the LHC, both as a benchmark channel to the production of the Higgs boson in association with b quarks, and as a Standard Model background to the H→ZZ search and to new physics searches in final states with leptons and b-jets.
