PDF's: What Do We Need To Know?

arXiv:hep-ph/0112307

Abstract

Reliable knowledge of parton distribution functions is crucial for many searches for new physics signals in the next generation of experiments. Presently, there remain a number of open questions regarding the PDF's and their uncertainties. We briefly discuss these issues, and consider aspects where a future high-precision fixed-target experiment might contribute.
