Power corrections to the differential Drell-Yan cross section

Abstract

We estimate the power corrections (infrared renormalon contributions) to the coefficient functions for the differential Drell-Yan cross-section $d^2\sigma /d{Q}^{2}dy$, where $Q^2$ is the mass squared and $y$ the rapidity of the produced lepton pair. We employ the dispersive method based on the analysis of one-loop Feynman graphs containing a massive gluon.
