Two Photon Radiation in W and Z Boson Production at the Tevatron Collider

Abstract

We present a calculation of two photon radiation in W and Z boson production in hadronic collisions, based on the complete matrix elements for the processes q\bar q'\to\ell^\pmνγγand q\bar q\to\ell^+\ell^-γγ, including finite charged lepton masses. In order to achieve stable numerical results over the full phase space, multiconfiguration Monte Carlo techniques are used to map the peaks in the differential cross section. Numerical results are presented for the Fermilab Tevatron.
