Parton Distributions, d/u, and Higher Twist Effects at High X

Abstract

A re-analysis of the NMC and SLAC data leads to a great improvement in our knowledge of the valence d and u parton distribution functions at high x. Standard parton distributions with our modifications are in good agreement with QCD predictions for d/u at x=1, and with the CDHSW nu p and nubar p data, the HERA charged current cross section data, the collider high-P_t jet data, and the CDF W asymmetry data. With the inclusion of target mass and higher twist corrections, the modified PDF's also describe all DIS data up to x = 0.98 and down to Q^2 = 1 GeV^2.
