Measurement of the shape of the boson rapidity distribution for pp̅ →Z/γ*→e+e-+X events produced at √s of 1.96 TeV

2007
We present a measurement of the shape of the boson rapiditydistribution for p[ overlinep]-->Z/gamma*-->e+e-+X events at a center-of- massenergy of 1.96 TeV. The measurement is made for events with electron-positron mass 71 Fermilab Tevatroncollider with the D0 detector. This measurement significantly reduces the uncertainties on the rapiditydistribution in the forward region compared with previous measurements. Predictions of next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD are found to agree well with the data over the full rapidityrange.
