Impact of LHC vector boson production in heavy ion collisions on strange PDFs
A. Kusina, T. Ježo, D. B. Clark +11
The extraction of the strange quark parton distribution function (PDF) poses a long-standing puzzle. Measurements from neutrino-nucleus deep inelastic scattering (DIS) experiments…
nCTEQ PDFs at the LHC: Vector boson production in heavy ion collisions
The nCTEQ Collaboration, D. B. Clark, E. Godat +13
Extraction of the strange quark PDF is a long-standing puzzle. We use the nCTEQ nPDFs with uncertainties to study the impact of the LHC W/Z production data on both the flavor diffe…
xFitter 2.0.0: Heavy quark matching scales: Unifying the FFNS and VFNS
The xFitter Developers' Team, :, V. Bertone +15
xFitter is an open-source package that provides a framework for the determination of the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton for many different kinds of analyses in…
Impact of the heavy quark matching scales in PDF fits
The xFitter Developers Team, V. Bertone, D. Britzger +14
We investigate the impact of displaced heavy quark matching scales in a global fit. The heavy quark matching scale determines at which energy scale the QCD theory trans…
LHC lead data and nuclear PDFs
A. Kusina, F. Lyonnet, D. B. Clark +6
We compare predictions of nCTEQ15 nuclear parton distribution functions with proton-lead vector boson production data from the LHC. We select data sets that are most sensitive to n…
Parton distribution functions probed in ultraperipheral collisions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider
J. Thomas, C. A. Bertulani, N. Brady +3
Vector meson production in ultra-peripheral pA and AA collisions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are very sensitive to Parton Distribution Functions (PDF) as well as to the…
