Abstract
At the Large Hadron Collider, thanks to the high luminosity and high collision energy, W and Z bosons will be produced with high rates, making accessible precise measurements of many electroweak processes. Some selected topics are here discussed: the PDF constraining using W and Z, the measurement of W and Z cross sections, precision measurements like the W boson mass, the study of the Drell-Yan and di-boson production.
