New physics through Drell-Yan standard model EFT measurements at NLO
S. Dawson, Pier Paolo Giardino
Abstract
Drell Yan production is a sensitive probe of new physics and as such has been calculated to high order in both the electroweak and QCD sectors of the standard model, allowing for precision comparisons between theory and data. Here we extend these calculations to the standard model effective field theory and present the next-to-leading order QCD and electroweak contributions to the neutral Drell-Yan process.
