In this process quark and anti-quark annihilate into massive off-shell photon and the photon decays into lepton pairs. The subprocess has the maximum analyzing power,

Thus the asymmetry for Drell-Yan process is written as

 
where a denotes the quark flavor, and  represents electric charge 
of flavor a,  
and the helicity distribution anti-quark can be determined. 
The asymmetry is the weighted sum of the

The asymmetry is the weighted sum of the  and
 
and  assuming strange and other heavy 
quark contribution to the 
asymmetry is small. The weight for the

Thus the asymmetry for Drell-Yan production of lepton pairs
will provide an information on the
