Impact of CMS dijets in 5.02 TeV pPb and pp collisions on EPPS16 nuclear PDFs
Kari J. Eskola, Petja Paakkinen, Hannu Paukkunen
The CMS measurement of dijet pseudorapidity distributions in pPb versus pp collisions at 5.02 TeV provides a direct probe on nuclear gluon PDFs. We show that while the predicted pP…
Heavy flavour production in the SACOT- scheme
Ilkka Helenius, Hannu Paukkunen
The hadroproduction of heavy-flavoured mesons has recently attracted a growing interest e.g. within the people involved in global analysis of proton and nuclear parton distribution…
Nuclear PDFs Today
Hannu Paukkunen
I review the current status of global analysis of nuclear parton distributions and discuss some near-future prospects. I also advocate proton-nucleus (p-) measurements at the LH…
Impact of CMS 5.02 TeV dijet measurements on gluon PDFs - a preliminary view
Kari J. Eskola, Petja Paakkinen, Hannu Paukkunen
We discuss the implications of the preliminary CMS dijet data from 5.02 TeV pp and pPb collisions for gluon PDFs of the proton and nuclei. The preliminary pp data show a discrepanc…
Revisiting the D-meson hadroproduction in general-mass variable flavour number scheme
Ilkka Helenius, Hannu Paukkunen
We introduce a novel realization of the open heavy-flavour hadroproduction in general-mass variable flavour number scheme at next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. The principa…
EPPS16 - Bringing nuclear PDFs to the LHC era
Kari J. Eskola, Petja Paakkinen, Hannu Paukkunen +1
We report on EPPS16, the first global analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) to include LHC data. Also for the first time, a full flavour dependence of nPDFs is…
