Abstract
The jet structure in events with Drell-Yan-produced W bosons is discus sed, and a new model for describing such an event is presented. The mo del is shown to explain recent measurements of the W-jet rapidity corr elation and predicts a transverse energy flow at high W rapidities (co rresponding to probing small-x partons in one of the incoming protons) higher than conventional parton cascade event generators.
