Reduction of the electroweak correlation in the PDF updating by using the forward–backward asymmetry of Drell–Yan process
We propose a new observable for the measurement of the forward–backward asymmetry (AFB) in Drell–Yan lepton production. At hadron colliders, the AFB distribution is sensitive to both the electroweak (EW) fundamental parameter sin 2θW, the weak mixing angle, and the parton distribution functions (PDF...
