• # Abstract

The Drell–Yan differential cross-section is measured in proton–proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV, from a data sample collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $36 \pm 1.4$ pb-1. The measured cross-section is normalized to the cross-section of the 𝑍-peak region, for both dimuon and dielectron final state, in the dilepton invariant mass range of 15–600 GeV/c2. The normalized cross-section values are quoted in the full phase-space and within the detector acceptance. The effect of final-state radiation is also studied and the measurements are correted for this. The measurements are compared to the theoretical predictions and are found to be in good agreement.
