Synergy • with existing DY expertise at UIUC & • important input for interpretation of • Pb-Pb results. • Possible future extension: • Use jet-photon events to study for • possible jet modifications and to • reach lower x. • Use jet-jet events to extend the • analysis to |η|< 4.9 and reach the • lowest x possible ATLAS pp: differential Drell-Yan Cross Section JHEP 1406 (2014) 112 Electron & muon results combined Xmin ~ 0.0003, 26 GeV < mll < 66 GeV PHENIX pp, dA, ATLAS pA, Belle FFs
