Description

The LHC is a discovery machine. Both CMS and ATLAS detectors are ready for collecting the first data from the pp collisions. Electroweak measurements is an important tool to demonstrate the detectors physics performance and to understand new physics scenarios since W & Z bosons are the building block of some of them . This talk is focused in the study of the W & Z boson production with the early data, the study of Z forward-backward asymmetry and the W charge assymetry
