The electroweak process $p\overline{p}{\mathcal{l}}^{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}\ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ is calculated at the tree level, including finite $W$ width effects. In order to obtain a gauge-invariant amplitude, the imaginary parts of $\mathrm{WW}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ triangle graphs and $\mathrm{WW}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ box diagrams have to be included, in addition to resumming the imaginary contributions to the $W$ vacuum polarization. We …
