Abstract

We present a study of events with

Z

bosons and hadronic jets produced in

\bar{p} p

collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.8 TeV. The data consist of 6708

Z \to e^{+} e^{-}

decays from

106 {pb}^{- 1}

of integrated luminosity collected using the CDF detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The

Z + \geq n

jet cross sections and jet production properties have been measured for

n = 1

to 4. The data are compared to predictions of leading-order QCD matrix element calculations with added gluon radiation and simulated parton fragmentation.
