Abstract

The quantum-chromodynamic predictions are computed for production of large-transverse-momentum lepton-antilepton pairs from qq̄ scattering (which is relevant to π-p or p̄p collisions). A simple formula not involving the parton distributions is derived for two of the three coefficients describing the angular distribution.
