A measurement of the $Z/\gamma^*$ transverse momentum spectrum using ATLAS proton-proton collision data at a center of mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 7{\text{TeV}}$ at the LHC. The measurement is performed in both $Z/\gamma^* \rightarrow ee$ and $Z/\gamma^* \rightarrow \mu \mu$ channels.

Measurement of angular correlations in Drell-Yan lepton pairs to probe $Z/\gamma^*$ boson transverse momentum (ATLAS_2012_I1204784)

Inspire | HepData | Analysis reference | arXiv:1211.6899

A measurement of angular correlations in Drell-Yan lepton pairs via the $\phi^*$ observable is presented. This variable probes the same physics as the $Z/\gamma^*$ boson transverse momentum with a better experimental resolution. The $Z/\gamma^* \to ee$ and $Z/\gamma^* \to \mu \mu$ decays produced in proton--proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 7 \text{TeV}$ are used. Normalised differential cross sections as a function of $\phi^*$ are measured separately for electron and muon decay channels. The cross-section is also measured double differentially as a function of $\phi^*$ for three independent bins of the $Z$ boson rapidity.

Measurement of the Z pT with electrons and muons at 7 TeV (ATLAS_2011_S9131140)

Inspire | HepData | Analysis reference | arXiv:1107.2381

The Z pT at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV is measured using electron and muon $Z$ decay channels. The dressed leptons definition uses photons clustered in a cone around the charged leptons, while the bare lepton definition uses the post-FSR charged leptons only in the $Z$ reconstruction. The data used in the bare leptons calculation are based on a forward application of a PHOTOS-based energy loss correction and are hence not quite model-independent.
