Patrick Motylinski, Lucian Harland-Lang, Alan D. Martin, Robert S., Thorne
TL;DR
This paper reports on the latest updates to parton distribution functions (PDFs) for the 2nd LHC run, incorporating recent theoretical improvements and new LHC data, resulting in a nearly final PDF set.
Contribution
It introduces the MMHT14 PDF set, reflecting recent theory and data updates, and provides a comprehensive update for LHC analyses.
Findings
New PDFs incorporate latest LHC data
The MMHT14 set is nearly final with no further changes expected
Enhanced PDFs improve accuracy for LHC predictions
Abstract
I present results on continuing updates in PDFs within the framework now called MMHT14 due to both theory improvements and the inclusion of new data sets, including most of the up-to-date LHC data. A new set of PDFs is essentially finalised, with no changes expected to the PDFs presented here.
