Higher order QCD corrections for the Drell-Yan process

In this talk we consider higher-order QCD corrections for Drell-Yan like processes. In particular we present results for next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD calculations at fully differential level, for vector boson production and for associated W -Higgs production at hadron colliders. The calculations are based on the qT -subtraction formalism and are implemented in parton level Monte Carlo numerical programs. The codes allow the user to apply arbitrary (infrared safe) kinematical cuts on the final state leptons and on the accompanying jet activity. We show some illustrative numerical results at the Tevatron and the LHC.
