abstract = {We consider Drell-Yan production $pp\to V^* X \to L X$ at
small$q_T \ll Q$, where $q_T$ and $Q$ arethe total
transverse momentum and invariant mass of the leptonic final
state $L$.Experimental measurements require fiducial cuts on
$L$,which in general introduce enhanced, linear power
corrections in $q_T/Q$.We show that they can be
unambiguously predicted from factorization,and resummed to
the same order as the leading-power contribution.For the
fiducial $q_T$ spectrum, they constitute the complete
linearpower corrections.We thus obtain predictions for the
fiducial $q_T$ spectrum to N$^3$LL andnext-to-leading-power
in $q_T/Q$.Matching to full NNLO ($\alpha_s^2$), we find
that the linear powercorrections are indeed the dominant
ones, and once included by factorization,the remaining
fixed-order corrections become almost negligible below $q_T
\lesssim 40$ GeV.We also discuss the implications for more
complicated observables,and provide predictions for the
fiducial $\phi^*$ spectrum at N$^3$LL$+$NNLO.We find
excellent agreement with ATLAS and CMS measurements of $q_T$
and $\phi^*$.We also consider the $p_T^\ell$ spectrum. We
show that it developsleptonic power corrections in $q_T/(Q -
2p_T^\ell)$, which diverge near the Jacobianpeak $p_T^\ell
\sim Q/2$ and must be kept to all powers to obtain a
meaningful result there.Doing so, we obtain for the first
time an analytically resummed result for the$p_T^\ell$
spectrum around the Jacobian peak at N$^3$LL$+$NNLO.\%Our
method is based on performing a complete tensor
decomposition for hadronicand leptonic tensors. We show that
in practice this is equivalent tooften-used recoil
prescriptions, for which our results now provide rigorous,
formaljustification.Our tensor decomposition yields nine
Lorentz-scalar hadronic structure functions, whichfor
$Z/\gamma^* \to \ell\ell$ or $W\to\ell\nu$ directly map
ontothe commonly used angular coefficients, but also holds
for arbitrary leptonic final states.In particular, for
suitably defined Born-projected leptons it still yields a
LO-likeangular decomposition even when including QED
final-state radiation.Finally, we also discuss the
application to $q_T$ subtractions. Including
theunambiguously predicted fiducial power corrections
significantly improves theirperformance, and in particular
makes them applicable near kinematic edgeswhere they
otherwise break down due to large leptonic power
corrections.},
