Virtual Corrections to the NLO Splitting Functions for Monte Carlo: the non-singlet case
O. Gituliar, S. Jadach, A. Kusina +1
Construction of a QCD cascade at the NLO level requires recalculation of the splitting functions in a different manner [1]. We describe the calculation of some of the virtual contr…
NLO corrections in the initial-state parton shower Monte Carlo
S. Jadach, A. Kusina, W. Placzek +1
The decade-old technique of combining NLO-corrected hard process with LO-level parton shower Monte Carlo is now mature and used in practice of the QCD calculations in the LHC data…
CTEQ nuclear parton distribution functions
K. Kovarik, T. Jezo, A. Kusina +4
We show for the first time preliminary results of nuclear parton distribution function analysis of charged lepton DIS and Drell-Yan data within the CTEQ framework including error P…
A Hybrid Scheme for Heavy Flavors: Merging the FFNS and VFNS
A. Kusina, F. I. Olness, I. Schienbein +4
We introduce a Hybrid Variable Flavor Number Scheme for heavy flavors, denoted H-VFNS, which incorporates the advantages of both the traditional Variable Flavor Number Scheme (VFNS…
Strange Quark PDF Uncertainty and its Implications for W/Z Production at the LHC
A. Kusina, T. Stavreva, S. Berge +6
We investigate the impact of parton distribution functions (PDFs) uncertainties on W/Z production at the LHC, concentrating on the strange quark PDF. Additionally we examine the ex…
