Combining QCD and electroweak corrections to dilepton production in the framework of the FEWZ simulation code

Combining QCD and electroweak corrections to dilepton production in the framework of the FEWZ simulation code

We combine the next-to-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to lepton-pair production through the Drell-Yan mechanism with the next-to-leading order (NLO) electroweak corrections within the framework of the Fully Exclusive W and Z Production (FEWZ) simulation code. Control over both sources of higher-order contributions is necessary for measurements where percent-level theoretical predictions …
