Description

Drell-Yan process is a standard used in determination of parton distribution functions (PDFs) and has been measured in LHC experiments: ATLAS, CMS and LHCb. A theoretical possibility is to analyse the Drell--Yan process with a kinematical cutoff, with next-to-leading order accuracy and including Sudakov form factors. With the cutoff, a relatively small dilepton mass of 20 GeV, and forward rapidities, the region of small longitudinal momentum fraction can be probed at the LHC, provided a optimal scale specific to the process is calculated.
