We combine the qT resummation for QED and QCD radiation including the QED soft emissions from the W boson in the final state. In particular, we perform the resummation of enhanced logarithmic contributions due to soft and collinear emissions at next-to-leading accuracy in QED, leading-order accuracy for mixed QED-QCD and next-to-next-to-leading accuracy in QCD. In the small-qT region we consistently include in our results the next-to-next-to-leading order (i.e. two loops) QCD corrections and the next-to-leading order (i.e. one loop) electroweak corrections. The matching with the fixed-order calculation at large qT has been performed at next-to-leading order in QCD (i.e. at O(alpha(2)(S))) and at leading order in QED. We show numerical results for W and Z production at the Tevatron and the LHC. Finally, we consider the effect of combined QCD and QED resummation for the ratio of W and Z qT distributions, and we study the impact of the QED corrections providing an estimate of the corresponding perturbative uncertainties.", optnote="WOS:001030009700004", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5596), last updated on Wed, 16 Aug 2023 14:55:23 +0000", issn="1029-8479", doi="10.1007/JHEP07(2023)104", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.05403", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP07(2023)104", language="English" }
