Spin Dependent Drell Yan and Double Prompt Photon Production to NLO QCD

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-30 v2

Abstract

We present the complete O(αs2)O(\alpha_s^2) radiative corrections to the (non singlet) polarized Drell Yan cross section for the production of a lepton pair with a nonzero qTq_T. The helicity of the incoming states is arbitrary. In the case of double photon, results for the longitudinal asymmetries and on the pTp_T behavior of the cross section are also given (to O(αem2αs)O(\alpha_{em}^2\alpha_s )) in the central rapidity region of the tagged photon.
