Abstract

We present QCD predictions for the production of vector bosons at small transverse momentum in hadron-hadron collisions by the Drell-Yan mechanism. By using Fermilab and ISR data to fix the parametrisation of non-perturbative effects we are able to define clearly the region of transverse momentum in which a leading logarithm analysis applies for the production of W- and Z- bosons. We also investigate the sensitivity of the cross section to recently calculated coefficients in this analysis.
