It is proven in this paper that the structure functions for the hadron quantity describing deep inelastic neutrino scattering factor into the product of a short-distance coefficient function, the non-perturbative partondistribution function which encompasses the underlying structure of the target, and the function for soft radiation which does not emerge in the case of electron scattering for which weak radiative corrections are usually practically ignored. This is shown to all orders of perturbative quantum chromodynamics and electroweak theory, and to leading order in the power expansion of the effective field theory used as a tool. It is based on the observation that there is no necessity to go into the partonic level of the physical process, for a generalized version of the operator product expansion affords a framework for the study of inclusive processes, where the momentum carried in by one current operator and out by the other is allowed to go to infinity. It is discovered following this line of argument that the objects entering the factorization theorem need not be SU(2) x U(1) gauge singlets, whether or not we perform the factorization in the symmetric phase. The factorization analysis provides initial conditions for evolution to arbitrary energies that allows for re-summation of large logarithms for loop calculations to the extent of accuracy requested.

QCD predictions of the Z (Z -> l(+)l(-)) boson in association with jets (up to 2 jets) in proton-proton collisions are presented in this study. The results are predicted at LO and NLO accuracy using two most recent parton distribution functions, CT14 and MMHT2014. LO and NLO corrections are obtained with LO, NLO, and NNLO PDFs to find out the best PDF, which provides well compatible predictions with the experimental measurements. QCD predictions are performed at 13 and 14 TeV center-of-mass energies. To verify the obtained results, the predictions are compared with the measured results by ATLAS collaboration. NLO QCD predictions obtained by using NLO and NNLO PDFs show good agreement with the experimental data. The comparison of NLO predictions at 13 and 14 TeV center-of-mass energies shows that the Large Hadron Collider will provide approximately 9% more yield at 14 TeV center-of-mass energy than the yield at 13 TeV center-of-mass energy for the Z boson in association with 1 and 2 jets.

The determination of the W-boson mass through an analysis of the decay charged-lepton transverse momentum distribution has a sizable uncertainty due to the imperfect knowledge of the relevant parton distribution functions (PDFs). In this paper, a quantitative assessment of the W-boson mass uncertainty at the LHC resulting from the PDF uncertainty is examined. We use the CT14 NNLO PDFs with a NNLL + NNLO calculation (ResBos) to simulate the W-boson production and decay kinematics. The uncertainty of the W-boson mass determination is then determined as a function of the boson and lepton kinematics. For W+ production using P-T(W) < 15 GeV and 35 < P-T(l) (GeV) < 45, PDF uncertainties lead (at the 68% CL) to a mass uncertainty for the M(W)(+)of (+16.0-17.5) MeV, (+13.9-14.8) MeV, and (+12.2-19.2) MeV, are determined at 7 TeV, 8 TeV and 13 TeV, respectively. The uncertainties of M-(W) over bar for the same cuts are found to be +15.9-15.6 MeV,(+15.0)(-12.7) MeV and (+14.8-15.3) MeV, at 7 TeV, 8 TeV and 13 TeV, respectively.

An attempt to find simple parton distribution functions (PDFs) based on quantum statistical approach is presented. The PDFs described by the statistical model have very interesting physical properties which help to understand the structure of partons. The longitudinal portion of distributionfunctions are given by applying the maximum entropy principle. An interesting and simple approach to determine the statistical variables exactly without fitting and fixing parameters is surveyed. Analytic expressions of the x-dependent PDFs are obtained in the whole x region [0, 1], and the computed distributions are consistent with the experimental observations. The agreement with experimental data, gives a robust confirm of our simple presented statistical model. (C) 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.

We perform a comparison of the impact of different intrinsic charm (IC) models, based on the prediction of the differential cross-sections of Z-boson and c-jet production in pp collision. It is shown that regardless of choosing the model, considering nonperturbative intrinsic charm component increases the magnitude of the cross-section when the Z transverse momentum grows or at large rapidity (y) of the Z. Moreover, to evaluate the effect of different parton distribution functions (PDFs), we also compare the results of two PDF sets in prediction of production Z + c-jet in pp at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with taking into account the intrinsic charm contribution in the proton. It is shown that the various PDF sets give some difference in the description of the Z + c-jet cross-section.

We present a new software package designed to reduce the computational burden of hadron collider measurements in partondistribution Function (PDF) fits. The APFELgrid package converts interpolated weight tables provided by APPLgrid files into a more efficient format for PDF fitting by the combination with PDF and as evolution factors provided by APFEL. This combination significantly reduces the number of operations required to perform the calculation of hadronic observables in PDF fits and simplifies the structure of the calculation into a readily optimised scalar product. We demonstrate that our technique can lead to a substantial speed improvement when compared to existing methods without any reduction in numerical accuracy.

parton distribution functions are key quantities for us to understand the hadronic structures in high-energy scattering, but they are difficult to calculate from lattice QCD. Recent years have seen fast development of the large-momentum effective theory which allows extraction of the x-dependence of parton distribution functions from a quasi-partondistribution function that can be directly calculated on lattice. The extraction is based on a factorization formula for the quasi-partondistribution function that has been derived rigorously in perturbation theory. A systematic procedure that includes renormalization, perturbative matching, and power corrections has been established to calculate parton distribution functions. Latest progress from lattice QCD has shown promising signs that it will become an effective tool for calculating parton physics.

In this paper we present a new and efficient analytical solutions for evolving the QCD circle times QED DGLAP evolution equations in Mellin space and obtain the parton distribution functions (PDFs) in perturbative QCD including the QED corrections. The validity of our analytical solutions, which have done in the next to leading order QCD and the leading order QED approximations, are checked with the initial partondistributions from newly released CT14QED global analysis code (Schmidt et al., 2016 [9]). The evolved parton distribution functions are in good agreement with CT14QED PDFs set and also with those from APFEL (Bertone et al., 2014 [ 7]) program. Finally, we derived the impact of the NLO QED corrections to the QCD circle times QED DGLAP evolution equations. (C) 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
