Abstract

The Drell-Yan process may be used as a unique probe of the partonic structure of hadrons and of fundamental QCD interactions, providing complementary information to deep inelastic scattering (DIS) measurements. Drell-Yan provides the ability to distinguish between the quarks and antiquarks based on kinematics. Unpolarized Drell-Yan provides access to the longitudinal distributions antiquarks in the proton. Angular distributions are sensitive to the h ⊥ 1, Boer-Mulders, distribution. With the addition of polarization, other transverse momentum distributions (TMDs) can be accessed, including the Sivers’ distribution, f ⊥ 1.
