An on-going comprehensive global QCD analysis project to test the accuracy of QCD and to extract the universal parton distribution functions needed in calculations of all high energy physics processes
CTEQ studies of parton distribution functions
- CTEQ-TEA (CTEQ Tung Et Al.) general-purpose parton distributions in the nucleon up to the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO); tools for the fast PDF analysis, PDF updating and combination of PDF sets; specialized PDFs for computations with massive quarks
- CTEQ-Jefferson Lab (CJ) PDFs:
next-to-leading order (NLO) PDFs with large-x data sets
- nCTEQ:
Nuclear parton distribution functions
- Older CTEQ PDFs
are availble at the legacy CTEQ webpage hosted by Randy Scalise.
- ManeParse
is a modular Mathematica package that provides access to
PDFs for hadronic calculations. It allows for parsing of .pds and
LHAPDF6 files and estimates PDF errors for Hessian and MC releases.
