Description
With approximately 35/pb of LHC proton-proton collision data collected by CMS we study the Drell-Yan process qqbar -> Z -> l+l-. Differential cross sections with respect to the invariant mass, rapidity, and transverse momentum are presented. The forward-backward asymmetry is measured as a function of the di-lepton invariant mass, and an analysis of the fully differential distribution leads to the measurement of the Weinberg weak-mixing angle.
