Abstract

We present a computation of the inclusive Drell-Yan production cross-section in perturbative QCD to all orders in the limit of high partonic centre-of-mass energy. We compare our results to the fixed order NLO and NNLO results in (MS) over bar scheme, and provide predictions at (NLO)-L-3 and beyond. Our expressions may be used to obtain fully resummed results for the inclusive cross-section. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
