W and Z Production at the LHC

Inclusive production of W and Z bosons will be one of the first physics processes to be measured in the first days of the LHC era. The prospects for the measurement of their cross-section at ATLAS and CMS with the first collision data are outlined in this paper. The corresponding experimental uncert...

description Inclusive production of W and Z bosons will be one of the first physics processes to be measured in the first days of the LHC era. The prospects for the measurement of their cross-section at ATLAS and CMS with the first collision data are outlined in this paper. The corresponding experimental uncertainties and their potential to constrain parton density functions (PDFs) are reviewed.
