Closure testing NNPDF3.0 with LHC observables

Christopher S. Deans

A thorough understanding of PDFs and their uncertainties is important for the LHC and for future collider experiments. The recently released NNPDF3.0 set was presented alongside re…

Parton distributions for the LHC Run II

The NNPDF Collaboration, Richard D. Ball, Valerio Bertone +9

We present NNPDF3.0, the first set of parton distribution functions (PDFs) determined with a methodology validated by a closure test. NNPDF3.0 uses a global dataset including HERA-…

Closure testing the NNPDF3.0 methodology

Christopher S. Deans

A thorough understanding of the issues surrounding the determination of parton distributions is crucial due to their importance to calculations of LHC observables. However, it is s…

Towards closure testing of parton determinations

Nathan P. Hartland, Christopher S. Deans

The method of closure testing for analysing the effectiveness of a PDF fitting procedure is discussed. In order to pass a closure test, a fitting methodology must be able to reprod…

Parton distributions with LHC data

Richard D. Ball, Valerio Bertone, Stefano Carrazza +8

We present the first determination of parton distributions of the nucleon at NLO and NNLO based on a global data set which includes LHC data: NNPDF2.3. Our data set includes, besid…
