NLO QCD corrections to Drell-Yan processes in the SANC framework

Abstract

NLO QCD corrections to charged and neutral current Drell-Yan processes and their implementation in the computer system SANC are considered. On the partonic level both quark-antiquark and quark-gluon scattering channels are taken into account. Subtractions of the collinear singularities in the massive case are compared with ones in the MS-bar scheme. Results of SANC on the hadronic level are presented. Comparison with results of the MCFM package is shown.
