Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The WZ production cross section is measured by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in proton-proton collision data samples corresponding to integrated luminosities of 4.9 fb$^{-1}$ collected at $ \sqrt{s} = $ 7 TeV, and 19.6 fb$^{-1}$ at $ \sqrt{s} = $ 8 TeV. The measurements are performed using the fully-leptonic WZ decay modes with electrons and muons in the final state. The measured cross sections for 71 $
