QCD analysis of structure functions in deep inelastic neutrino-nucleon scattering without using the orthogonal polynomials approach

Abstract

A nonsinglet QCD analysis of neutrino-nucleon structure function is performed based on all the data for charged current neutrino-nucleon deep inelastic scattering (DIS) corresponds to NLO and NNLO approximations, with taking into account the nuclear and higher twist corrections. In this analysis, we extract $x{u}_v(x,Q^2)$ and $x{d}_v(x,Q^2)$ valence parton distribution functions (PDFs) in a wide range of $x$ and $Q^2$, and determine their parametrization with the correlated errors using the xFitter framework. Our results regarding valence-quark densities with their uncertainties are compared to the prediction extracted using other PDF sets from different groups. We determine ${\alpha }_s(M_Z^2)$= 0.1199 $\pm$ 0.0031 and 0.1185 $\pm$ 0.0023 with considering the nuclear and higher twist corrections at the NLO and NNLO, respectively, and perform a comparison with other reported results. The extracted results regarding valence-quark distributions and the value of ${\alpha }_s(M_Z^2)$ are in good agreement with available theoretical models.
