Global QCD analysis and the CTEQ parton distributions

Abstract: The CTEQ program for the determination of parton distributions through a global QCD analysis of data for various hard scattering processes is fully described. A new set of distributions, CTEQ3, incorporating several new types of data is reported and compared to the two previous sets of CTEQ distributions. Comparison with current data is discussed in some detail. The remaining uncertainties in the parton distributions and methods to further reduce them are assessed. Comparisons with the results of other global … Show more

“…[13], the third version of the CTEQ collaboration model [15], because it is characterized by a particularly suitable extrapolation at very low Bjorkenx. The evolution in Q 2 is realized by next-to-leading order Altarelli-Parisi equations from initial Q 2 0 = 2.56 GeV 2 .…”

“…In hadronic collisions, both with fixed targets [10] and colliders [11,12], prompt photon processes provide a means to study the gluon content of the proton [13,14]. Fixed target studies [15] have also provided a first confirmation of prompt photon processes in photoproduction, at a level consistent with QCD expectations.…”
