Progress in the CTEQ-TEA NNLO global QCD analysis

Abstract: We present the new CTEQ-TEA global analysis of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). In this analysis, parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the nucleon are determined within the Hessian method at the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbative QCD, based on the most recent measurements from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and a variety of world collider data. Because of difficulties in fitting both the ATLAS 7 and 8 TeV W and Z vector boson production cross section data, and to examine the range of PDFs ob… Show more

“…Our numerical results are for the scale µ = 2 GeV. We take the parton momentum fractions from the CT18NNLO parameterization [46], which in the case of four active quark flavors gives a q = 0.586 ± 0.013 , a g = 1 − a q = 0.414 ± 0.013 .…”

“…6, compared with the existing data in the p T range up to about 6 -8 GeV and predictions extending up to p T = 20 GeV. The default predictions, using the CT18nlo set of parton distributions from [48,49] and the central member of the set I Ξ − + Ξ+ FFs turn out to be considerably smaller than the data, as expected.…”

“…Figure 3 shows PDF and scale uncertainties of the acceptance. The PDF uncertainties are evaluated using the CT18ANNLO set [29,30] scaled to 68% c.l. The scale uncertainties are estimated by varying factorization and renormalization scale by factor of two and taking the envelope of resulting acceptance factors.…”
