Small- and large-x nucleon spin structure from a global QCD analysis of polarized Parton Distribution Functions
Emanuele Roberto Nocera
I investigate the behavior of spin-dependent parton distribution functions in the regions of small and large momentum fractions . I present a systematic comparison between predi…
TMDlib and TMDplotter: library and plotting tools for transverse-momentum-dependent parton distributions
F. Hautmann, H. Jung, M. Krämer +4
Transverse-momentum-dependent distributions (TMDs) are central in high-energy physics from both theoretical and phenomenological points of view. In this manual we introduce the lib…
Flavor asymmetry of the polarized nucleon sea
Emanuele Roberto Nocera
We discuss the flavor asymmetry of polarized light antiquarks in the nucleon, . We present a determination of this quantity based on two global QCD analyses of e…
A first unbiased global determination of polarized PDFs and their uncertainties
Emanuele R. Nocera, Richard D. Ball, Stefano Forte +2
We present a first global determination of spin-dependent parton distribution functions (PDFs) and their uncertainties using the NNPDF methodology: NNPDFpol1.1. Longitudinally pola…
Unbiased spin-dependent Parton Distribution Functions
Emanuele Roberto Nocera
We present the first unbiased determination of spin-dependent, or polarized, Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) of the proton. A statistically sound representation of the corresp…
