Description

The Drell-Yan cross-section differential in both transverse momentum and beam thrust contains large logarithms of both variables that require resummation. I will discuss a framework to jointly resum these logarithms in Soft-Collinear Effective Theory, and present obtained numerical results. In this talk, I will also address some technical aspects, such as the combination of relevant regions, the method of hybrid matching in momentum space and impact parameter space and the specific choices of (profile) scales.
