The production cross sections of the inclusive Drell-Yan process W±→ℓν (\ell = e, µ) are measured in proton-proton collisions at \sqrt{s} = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector. The cross sections are evaluated differentially as a function of the W boson rapidity based on an integrated luminosity of about 35 \text{pb}^{−1} collected in 2010. The cross sections are measured separately for W^+ and W^- production, and then used to construct the W charge asymmetry as well.
