The vector boson transverse momentum distributions

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

The transverse momentum dependent distributions (TMD) are an essential part of the factorization theorems in vector boson production. They are non-perturbative, double scale dependent functions that asymptotically match onto collinear parton distributions functions (PDF). Once TMD are expressed using PDF, one observes that they are sensitive to the choice and quality of PDF sets (PDF bias). A solution to this problem is found and discussed. Nevertheless the main source of error on vector boson spectra still comes from PDF uncertainty propagation.
