Uncertainties of Sudakov form factors
arXiv:hep-ph/0412342 · doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2005/01/058
Abstract
We study the uncertainties of Sudakov form factors as the basis for parton shower evolution in Monte Carlo event generators. We discuss the particular cases of systematic uncertainties of parton distribution functions and scale uncertainties.
