Electroweak Radiative Corrections to Weak Boson Production at Hadron Colliders
U. Baur, D. Wackeroth
Abstract
We summarize the status of calculations of the electroweak radiative corrections to W and Z boson production via the Drell-Yan mechanism at hadron colliders. To fully exploit the precision physics potential of the high-luminosity environment of the Fermilab Tevatron pbar p (Run II) and the CERN LHC pp colliders, it is crucial that the theoretical predictions are well under control. The envisioned precision physics program includes a precise measurement of the W boson mass and width, and the (leptonic) weak mixing angle, as well as probing the Standard Model (SM) of electroweak interactions at the highest accessible center-of-mass energies. Some numerical results are presented.
