Reduction of the electroweak correlation in the PDF updating by using the forward–backward asymmetry of Drell–Yan process
Abstract We propose a new observable for the measurement of the forward–backward asymmetry $$(A_{FB})$$ ( A FB ) in Drell–Yan lepton production. At hadron colliders, the $$A_{FB}$$ A FB distribution is sensitive to both the electroweak (EW) fundamental parameter $$\sin ^{2} \theta _{W}$$ sin 2 θ W ,...
