LHAPDF6: parton density access in the LHC precision era (2015)
Journal Article
Buckley, A., Ferrando, J., Lloyd, S., Nordström, K., Page, B., Rüfenacht, 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.

Parton distribution functions at LO, NLO and NNLO with correlated uncertainties between orders (2014)
Journal Article
Belov, P., Britzger, D., Camarda, S., Cooper-Sarkar, A., Diaconu, C., Feltesse, J., …Lisovyi, M. (2014). Parton distribution functions at LO, NLO and NNLO with correlated uncertainties between orders. The European Physical Journal C, 74(10), Article 3039. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-014-3039-4

Sets of parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton are reported for the leading (LO), next-to-leading (NLO) and next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) QCD calculations. The parton distribution functions are determined with the HERAFitter progra... Read More about Parton distribution functions at LO, NLO and NNLO with correlated uncertainties between orders.
