Abstract We present a measurement of W + Jets differential cross sections for W production in association with at least n jets. The results are based on 320 pb-1 of CDF Run II data. The differential cross sections are measured as a function of jet Et, jet-jet delta R and jet-jet invariant mass. The measurements are corrected to the hadron level and compared to W + Jets Monte Carlo samples generated with Leading Order ALPGEN (v2) + PYTHIA, where the Monte Carlo has been normalised to the measured inclusive cross section for each jet multiplicity.
