Measurements of the differential cross section for the process $Z/\gamma^\ast \rightarrow l$ $(l = e, \mu)$ as a function of dilepton invariant mass in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV. The measurement is performed in the $e$ and $\mu$ channels for invariant masses between 26 GeV and 66 GeV in the fiducial region $p_\text{T}^\text{leading} > 15$ GeV, $p_\text{T}^\text{subleading} > 12$ GeV, $|\eta| < 2.4$ using an integrated luminosity of 1.6 $\text{fb}^{-1}$. The analysis is extended to invariant masses as low as 12 GeV in the muon channel within a fiducal region of $p_\text{T}^\text{leading} > 9$ GeV, $p_\text{T}^\text{subleading} > 6$ GeV, $|\eta| < 2.4$ with 35 $\text{pb}^{-1}$.
