Illuminating the photon content of the proton within a global PDF analysis

Valerio Bertone, Stefano Carrazza, Nathan P. Hartland +1

Precision phenomenology at the LHC requires accounting for both higher-order QCD and electroweak corrections as well as for photon-initiated subprocesses. Building upon the recent…

Minimisation strategies for the determination of parton density functions

Stefano Carrazza, Nathan P. Hartland

We discuss the current minimisation strategies adopted by research projects involving the determination of parton distribution functions (PDFs) and fragmentation functions (FFs) th…

Machine learning challenges in theoretical HEP

Stefano Carrazza

In these proceedings we perform a brief review of machine learning (ML) applications in theoretical High Energy Physics (HEP-TH). We start the discussion by defining and then class…

The photon PDF determination within the xFitter framework

Francesco Giuli

The xFitter project (former HERAFitter project) is an open-source package that provides a framework for the determination of the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton…

A determination of the fragmentation functions of pions, kaons, and protons with faithful uncertainties

Valerio Bertone, Stefano Carrazza, Nathan P. Hartland +2

We present NNFF1.0, a new determination of the fragmentation functions (FFs) of charged pions, charged kaons, and protons/antiprotons from an analysis of single-inclusive hadron pr…

Parton distributions from high-precision collider data

The NNPDF Collaboration, Richard D. Ball, Valerio Bertone +13

We present a new set of parton distributions, NNPDF3.1, which updates NNPDF3.0, the first global set of PDFs determined using a methodology validated by a closure test. The update…
