Using a subtraction method, we derive the formulae suitable for use inMonte-Carlo event generators to give the angular distribution for thegluon-quark induced NLO corrections in Drell-Yan lepton pair production. Wealso give the corresponding helicity density matrix for W and Z bosonproduction.Comment: 14 pages, 2 figure
