      abstract     = {Measurements of the associated production of a W boson and
                      a charm (c) quark in proton-proton collisions at a
                      centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV are reported. The analysis
                      uses a data sample corresponding to a total integrated
                      luminosity of 19.7 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the CMS detector
                      at the LHC. The W bosons are identified through their
                      leptonic decays to an electron or a muon, and a neutrino.
                      Charm quark jets are selected using distinctive signatures
                      of charm hadron decays. The product of the cross section and
                      branching fraction $\sigma$(pp $\to$ W + c + X)
                      $\mathcal{B}$(W $\to$$\ell\nu$), where $\ell$ = e or $\mu$,
                      and the cross section ratio $\sigma$(pp $\to$ W$^+$ + c +
                      X)/$\sigma$(pp $\to$ W$^-$ + $\mathrm{\bar{c}}$ + X) are
                      measured inclusively and differentially as functions of the
                      pseudorapidity and of the transverse momentum of the lepton
                      from the W boson decay. The results are compared with
                      theoretical predictions. The impact of these measurements on
                      the determination of the strange quark distribution is
                      assessed.},
