Precision studies of single W and Z production processes at hadron collidersrequire progress in the calculation of electroweak radiative corrections. Tothis end, higher-order QED corrections to the neutral-current Drell-Yanprocess, due to multiple photon radiation in Z leptonic decays, are calculated.Particular attention is paid to the effects induced by such corrections on theexperimental observables which are relevant for high-precision measurements ofthe W-boson mass at the Tevatron Run II and the LHC. The calculation isimplemented in the Monte Carlo event generator HORACE, which is available fordata analysis.Comment: 16 pages, 4 figures, 3 tables, JHEP3 styl
