Measurement of the shape of the boson rapidity distribution for $p\bar{p} \to Z/\gamma^* \to e^+e^- +X$ events produced at $\sqrt{s}$ of 1.96 TeV
2007
We present a measurement of the shape of the boson rapidity distribution for p{bar p}{yields}Z/gamma*{yields}e{sup +}e{sup -}+X events at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. The measurement is made for events with electron-positron mass 71Fermilab Tevatron collider with the D0 detector. This measurement significantly reduces the uncertainties on the rapidity distribution 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 rapidity range.
