Abstract

One-loop electroweak radiative corrections to dilepton production in the channel of photon fusion in hadron–hadron collisions are estimated for the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) experimental program aimed at studying the Drell–Yan process. A detailed numerical analysis of effects associated with electroweak radiative corrections to observables (cross sections and the forward–backward asymmetry) is performed over a wide kinematical region, including that of the CMS experiment at the LHC in the Run3/HL mode, which corresponds to ultrahigh energies and dilepton invariant masses.
