$pp$ scattering at the LHC with the lepton pair production and one proton tagging

Abstract

Analytical formulas for the cross section of the reaction $pp\to p+{\ell }^{+}{\ell }^{-}+X$ are presented. Fiducial cross sections are compared with those measured recently by the ATLAS collaboration.

13 pages, 1 figure; updated according to the referee comments, in particular the uncertainty from extrapolation of parton distribution functions to low Q^2 was estimated. This is the version published in the journal
