Continuing with our investigations of the expected sizes of multiple photon radiative effects in heavy gauge boson production with decay to charged lepton pairs in the context of the precision physics of the LHC, using KK{MC}-hh 4.22 we consider IFI and ISR effects for specific Z/$gamma^*$ Drell-Yan observables measured by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations. With this version of KK{MC}-hh, we have coherent exclusive exponentiation (CEEX) electroweak (EW) exact ${cal O}(alpha^2 L)$ corrections in a hadronic MC and control over the corresponding EW initial-final interference (IFI) effects as well. Specifically, we illustrate the interplay between cuts of the type used in the measurement of $A_{FB}$ and $A_4$ at the LHC and the sizes of the expected responses of the attendant higher order corrections. We find that there are per cent to per mille level effects in the initial-state radiation, fractional per mille level effects in the IFI and per mille level effects in the over-all ${cal O}(alpha^2 L)$ corrections that any treatment of EW corrections at the per mille level should consider. Our results are applicable to current LHC experimental data analyses.
KKMC-hh is a hadronic event generator for Z boson production and decays, which includes exponentiated multi-photon radiation and first-order electroweak corrections. We have used KKMC-hh to investigate the role of initial sate radiation (ISR) and ini
We present an improvement of the MC event generator Herwiri2, where we recall the latter MC was a prototype for the inclusion of CEEX resummed EW corrections in hadron-hadron scattering at high cms energies. In this improvement the new exact ${cal O}
${cal KK}$MC-hh is a precision event-generator for Z production and decay in hadronic collisions, which applies amplitude-level resummation to both initial and final state photon radiation, including perturbative residuals exact through ${cal O}(alph
We present a comparison of data of lepton angular distributions of Drell-Yan/$Z$ production with the fixed-order pQCD calculations by which the baseline of pQCD effects is illustrated. As for the $Z$ production, we predict that $A_0$ and $A_2$ for $Z
Many extension of the standard model contain an extra U(1) gauge group with a heavy Z gauge boson. Perhaps the most clear signal for such a Z would be a resonance in the invariant mass spectrum of the lepton pairs to which it decays. In the absence o
