The intrinsic charm quark valence distribution of the proton
Richard D. Ball, Alessandro Candido, Juan Cruz-Martinez +7
We provide a first quantitative indication that the wave function of the proton contains unequal distributions of charm quarks and antiquarks, i.e. a nonvanishing intrinsic valence…
On the positivity of MSbar parton distributions
Alessandro Candido, Stefano Forte, Tommaso Giani +1
We revisit our argument that shows that parton distribution Functions (PDFs) in the MSbar{ scheme are non-negative in the perturbative region, with the main goals of elucidating it…
Theory prediction in PDF fitting
Andrea Barontini, Alessandro Candido, Juan M. Cruz-Martinez +2
Continuously comparing theory predictions to experimental data is a common task in analysis of particle physics such as fitting parton distribution functions (PDFs). However, typic…
Pineline: Industrialization of High-Energy Theory Predictions
Andrea Barontini, Alessandro Candido, Juan M. Cruz-Martinez +2
We present a collection of tools automating the efficient computation of large sets of theory predictions for high-energy physics. Calculating predictions for different processes o…
Neutrino Structure Functions from GeV to EeV Energies
Alessandro Candido, Alfonso Garcia, Giacomo Magni +3
The interpretation of present and future neutrino experiments requires accurate theoretical predictions for neutrino-nucleus scattering rates. Neutrino structure functions can be r…
