Abstract: Based on the next leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD calculation and adopted parton distribution functions from double Q2 rescaling model (DQ2RM) in nuclei, we have discussed the variation of K-factors in p N(A) Drell-Yan process. Our results show that K-factors could not be treated as constants as usual, but are varied markedly with the kinimatic variable xT(A). In the ISR and SppS energy regions, when 2×10-3≤ xT(A)<1, K-factors decrease markedly as xT(A) becomes smaller, but after xT(A)<2×10-3, Their values increase rapidly as xT(A) further decrease. K-factor has a little dependence on nucleon number A of a nuclei also, and their effects are more clear in small xT(A) region. These observations are important for stringent test of some models and some physical quanties with Drell-Yan (Drell-Yan like) process in super high energy regions.
