Global analyses of nuclear PDFs with heavy-quark and neutrino data
Published 19 Oct 2022 in hep-ph, hep-ex, and nucl-ex | (2210.10284v1)
Abstract: We discuss the two most recent global analyses of nuclear parton distribution functions within the nCTEQ approach. LHC data on $W/Z$-boson, single-inclusive hadron and heavy quark/quarkonium production are shown to not only significantly reduce the gluon uncertainty down to $x\geq10{-5}$, but to also influence the strange quark density. The latter is further constrained by neutrino deep-inelastic scattering and charm dimuon production data, whose consistency with neutral-current experiments is also re-evaluated.
