abstract

Charged gauge boson production at hadron colliders is a fundamental benchmark for the extraction of electroweak parameters and the understanding of the proton structure. To enable precision phenomenology for this process, we compute the third-order (N$^3$LO) QCD corrections to the rapidity distribution and charge asymmetry in W boson production and to the transverse mass distribution of its decay products. Our results display substantial QCD corrections in kinematic regions relevant for Tevatron and LHC measurements. We compare the numerical magnitude of the N$^3$LO corrections with uncertainties from electroweak input parameters and quantify their potential impact on the determination of the W boson mass.

  1. Impact of Z-boson transverse-momentum resummation on PDF determination

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    N3LL' resummation is required to reconcile the 13 TeV ATLAS Z-pT spectrum with global PDF fits, but lowering the pT cut below 30 GeV is not yet supported.

  2. Measurement of $W^{\pm}$-boson differential cross-sections in proton-proton collisions with low pile-up data at $\sqrt{s} = 5.02$ TeV and $13$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2025-02 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    ATLAS reports new high-precision W-boson differential cross sections at 5.02 and 13 TeV, consistent with Standard Model predictions and useful for profiling proton parton distribution functions.

  3. Fast interpolation grids for the Drell-Yan process

    hep-ph 2025-01 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Differential NNLO Drell-Yan interpolation grids are released, with closure tests showing sub-per-mille accuracy and a validation that PDF fits are unaffected by the K-factor approximation.
