Precision calculations for Drell-Yan processes

21 Nov 2022, 09:25 → 22 Nov 2022, 18:00 Europe/Zurich

V10 room, settore didattico (via Giacomo Venezian 15)

A discussion on the theory predictions for the kinematical distributions of the Drell-Yan processes. The main focus will be on the estimate of the theoretical uncertainties and how they can be propagated to the MW determination.

Monday, 21 November
