Description
The production of W and Z bosons is one of the best understood and
most precisely studied processes, enabling powerful tests of the Standard
Model of particle physics. However, in view of the increased experimental
precision at the Tevatron and the LHC, the available calculations and
tools that provide predictions for W and Z boson observables may not
be sufficient. I will give an overview of the theory status and recent
developments with special emphasis on the treatment of higher-order
corrections.
