Description

The forward Drell-Yan process is analysed assuming dominance of the
quark-gluon partonic channel in the asymmetric kinematic configuration
in which x of the gluon is very small. The small x logarithms in the
gluon evolution are resummend using the BFKL formalism. Effects of
the resummation are determined in all the Drell-Yan structure functions.
In particular the impact of the gluon transverse momentum on the
Lam-Tung relation breaking is investigated.
