Description

In this contribution we present our recent preliminary results on the extraction of the unpolarised transverse-momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions (PDFs) from a study of Drell-Yan and Z-boson production data. We consider a wide dataset that includes low-energy data from the FNAL and high-energy data from Tevatron and the LHC. In particular, we highlight the challenges of including the most recent LHC data and theoretical uncertainties in the analysis.
