Implementation of DIS at NLO for PDF determination
Andrea Barontini, Marco Bonvini, Niccolò Laurenti
In this work we construct an accurate description of Deep-Inelastic Scattering (DIS) at third order in perturbative QCD that is valid at all energy scales. We do so by assembling m…
A Determination of at Accuracy from a Global PDF Analysis
The NNPDF Collaboration, Richard D. Ball, Andrea Barontini +6
We present a determination of the strong coupling from a global dataset including both fixed-target and collider data from deep-inelastic scattering and a variety of ha…
Evaluating the faithfulness of PDF uncertainties in the presence of inconsistent data
Andrea Barontini, Mark N. Costantini, Giovanni De Crescenzo +2
We critically assess the robustness of uncertainties on parton distribution functions (PDFs) determined using neural networks from global sets of experimental data collected from m…
An FONLL prescription with coexisting flavor number PDFs
Andrea Barontini, Alessandro Candido, Felix Hekhorn +2
We present a new prescription to account for heavy quark mass effects in the determination of parton distribution functions (PDFs) based on the FONLL scheme. Our prescription makes…
