Threshold-resummed cross section for the Drell-Yan process in pion-nucleon collisions at COMPASS

Threshold-resummed cross section for the Drell-Yan process in pion-nucleon collisions at COMPASS

We present a study of the Drell-Yan process in pion-proton collisions including next-to-leading-logarithmic threshold-resummed contributions. We analyze rapidity-integrated as well as rapidity-differential cross sections in the kinematic regime relevant for the COMPASS fixed target experiment. We find that resummation leads to a significant enhancement of the cross section compared to …
