Two-photon production of dileptons at the LHC with electroweak corrections taken into account

We estimate one-loop electroweak radiation corrections to the process of dilepton production in the photon fusion channel during hadron collisions for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experimental program of the study of the Drell–Yan process. We numerically and comprehensively analyze the effects of electroweak corrections to cross sections and the forward–backward asymmetry in a wide kinematic region, including for the CMS LHC experiment in the Run3/HL mode, which corresponds to superhigh energies and invariant masses of the lepton pair.
