Gauge boson production at the tevatron

We present measurements on gauge boson production from data taken during 1994–1996 by the DØ and CDF detectors: the differential production cross section of the W boson as a function of the transverse momentum [1,2], the ratio of W and Z differential cross sections [3,4], direct photon cross-section...

Summary:We present measurements on gauge boson production from data taken during 1994–1996 by the DØ and CDF detectors: the differential production cross section of the W boson as a function of the transverse momentum [1,2], the ratio of W and Z differential cross sections [3,4], direct photon cross-sections at √ s=630 and 1800 GeV [5,6], and studies of Drell-Yan production [7,8]. All measurements are in good agreement with currently available theoretical predictions in most of the measured kinematic range.
