We predict the triple differential cross section of the unpolarized Drell-Yan process at sqrt(S)=6 GeV. The model incorporates primordial parton transverse momentum and quark off-shellness effects caused by the initial state interaction.
In this article, we investigate parton energy loss in cold nuclear matter by studying the ratio of Drell-Yan production cross sections in fixed-target proton-nucleus (p + A) collisions. We analyze Drell-Yan production cross-section data…

This paper addresses the issue of production of charm or bottom quarks in association with a high pT process in hadron hadron collision. These quarks can be produced either as part of the hard scattering process or as a remnant from the…
We present a factorization theorem valid near the kinematic threshold $z=Q^2/\hat{s}\to 1$ of the partonic Drell-Yan process $q\bar q\to\gamma^*+X$ for general subleading powers in the $(1-z)$ expansion. We then consider the specific case…
