Description

Precision studies of Drell-Yan production of high-transverse momentum leptons at hadron colliders require that electroweak and QCD higher-order contributions are simultaneously taken into account in theoretical predictions and data analysis. A detailed phenomenological study of the impact of electroweak and strong contributions, as well as of their combination, to the most important observables relevant for single W and Z physics programme at hadron colliders is presented.
