Determination of the strong-coupling constant from the $Z$-boson transverse-momentum distribution

The strong-coupling constant is determined from the low-momentum region of the transverse-momentum distribution of $Z$ bosons produced through the Drell-Yan process, using predictions at third order in perturbative QCD. The analysis employs a measurement performed in proton-proton collisions at a ce...

description The strong-coupling constant is determined from the low-momentum region of the transverse-momentum distribution of $Z$ bosons produced through the Drell-Yan process, using predictions at third order in perturbative QCD. The analysis employs a measurement performed in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 1.96$ TeV with the CDF experiment. The determined value of the strong coupling at the reference scale corresponding to the $Z$-boson mass is $\alpha_S(m_Z) = 0.1185^{+0.0014}_{-0.0015}$.
