LHAPDF6: parton density access in the LHC precision era (2015)
Journal Article
Buckley, A., Ferrando, J., Lloyd, S., Nordström, K., Page, B., Rüfenacht, M., Schönherr, M., & Watt, G. (2015). LHAPDF6: parton density access in the LHC precision era. The European Physical Journal C, 75(3), Article 132. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-015-3318-8

The Fortran LHAPDF library has been a long-term workhorse in particle physics, providing standardised access to parton density functions for experimental and phenomenological purposes alike, following on from the venerable PDFLIB package. During Run... Read More about LHAPDF6: parton density access in the LHC precision era.
