Description

Drell-Yan production is one of the keystone processes at hadron colliders, and, as such, it is important to obtain highly precise theoretical predictions to compare with data. I will discuss the computation of mixed QCD-EW corrections to onshell vector boson production, and highlight their impact on the measurement of the mass of the W boson, where the target precision is around 0.1 permille. I will then discuss some recent work towards the calculation of mixed QCD-EW corrections to massless dilepton production.
