$Z^0$ and W transverse momentum spectra at the LHC

Abstract

We discuss the transverse momentum distribution of $Z^0$ and $W^{\pm }$ gauge bosons at the LHC with $\sqrt{s}=14$ TeV for pp collisions and with $\sqrt{s}=5.5$ TeV for Pb+Pb collisions. Effects of power corrections and shadowing are also studied.
