| contents | The transverse-momentum spectrum of Drell-Yan lepton pairs at small $p_T$ probes non-perturbative QCD effects, including intrinsic partonic transverse momentum and initial-state soft-gluon radiation. The novel approach PDF2ISR is employed to study the transverse-momentum spectrum of Drell-Yan lepton pairs in the small-$p_T(\ell\ell)$ region. This framework is particularly well suited for such investigations, as it provides a systematic treatment of the dominant non-perturbative effects and their interplay. In order to extract robust physical conclusions, a detailed analysis of the technical aspects involved in the simulation of the intrinsic transverse momenta of partons inside the proton, as well as the remnant recoil schemes, was carried out. Furthermore, different approaches for the treatment of the strong coupling at low scales were investigated and confronted with available experimental data. This comparison enabled an assessment of the sensitivity of the experimental measurements to the chosen low-scale behaviour of $α_s$. |
