MRST partons generated in a fixed-flavour scheme
arXiv:hep-ph/0603143 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2006.03.054
Abstract
We generate fixed three- and four-light-flavour sets of partons using MRST2004 partons as input. We show that it is important to set n_f=3 in the strong coupling, as well as in the splitting and coefficient functions, in order to obtain a consistent set of fixed-flavour partons. We compare the description of data using partons in both variable- and fixed-flavour-number-schemes.
