English abstract A measurement of W ® en + n-jet cross sections in p$\bar{p}$ collisions at Ös = 1.96 TeV using the Collider Detector at Fermilab in Run II is presented. The measurement is based on an integrated luminosity of 320 pb-1, and includes events with jet multiplicity from > 1 to > 4. In each jet multiplicity sample the differential and cumulative cross sections with respect to the transverse energy of the nth-leading jet are measured. For W+ > 2 jets the differential cross section with respect to the 2-leading jets invariant mass mj1j2 and angular separation DRj1j2 is also reported. The data are compared to predictions from Monte Carlo simulations
