High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2017-08-23 v1

Abstract

A short summary of results of recent simulations of (un)polarized Drell-Yan experiments is presented here. Dilepton production in pppp, pˉp\bar{p}p, πp\pi^-p and π+p\pi^+p scattering is considered, for several kinematics corresponding to interesting regions for experiments at GSI, CERN-Compass and RHIC. A table of integrated cross sections, and a set of estimated error bars on measurements of azimuthal asymmetries (associated with collection of 5, 20 or 80 Kevents) are reported.
