The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb(-1) collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The measurement of AFB is performed for dilepton masses between 40 GeV and 2 TeV and for dilepton rapidity up to 5. The AFB measurements as a function of dilepton mass and rapidity are compared with the standard model predictions.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArticle766WOS:0003860368000012-s2.0-849784372642828043910.1140/epjc/s10052-016-4156-zQ1Q1
