Exploiting energy recovery technology, it collides a novel, intense electron beam with a proton or ion beam from the High Luminosity--Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). The accelerator and interaction region are designed for concurrent electron-proton and proton-proton operation. This report represents an update of the Conceptual Design Report (CDR) of the LHeC, published in 2012. It comprises new results on parton structure of the proton and heavier nuclei, QCD dynamics, electroweak and top-quark physics. It is shown how the LHeC will open a new chapter of nuclear particle physics in extending the accessible kinematic range in lepton-nucleus scattering by several orders of magnitude. Due to enhanced luminosity, large energy and the cleanliness of the hadronic final states, the LHeC has a strong Higgs physics programme and its own discovery potential for new physics. Building on the 2012 CDR, the report represents a detailed updated design of the energy recovery electron linac (ERL) including new lattice, magnet, superconducting radio frequency technology and further components. Challenges of energy recovery are described and the lower energy, high current, 3-turn ERL facility, PERLE at Orsay, is presented which uses the LHeC characteristics serving as a development facility for the design and operation of the LHeC. An updated detector design is presented corresponding to the acceptance, resolution and calibration goals which arise from the Higgs and parton density function physics programmes. The paper also presents novel results on the Future Circular Collider in electron-hadron mode, FCC-eh, which utilises the same ERL technology to further extend the reach of DIS to even higher centre-of-mass energies. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2007.14491v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2007.14491v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 12 April, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 28 July, 2020; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2020. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">373 pages, many figures, to be published by J.

It incorporates experimental data from a wide range of experiments including fixed-target, Tevatron, HERA, and LHC. xFitter version 2.0.0 has recently been released, and offers an expanded set of tools and options. The new xFitter 2.0.0 program links to the APFEL code which has implemented generalized matching conditions that enable the switch from $N_F$ to $N_F+1$ active flavors at an arbitrary matching scale $渭_m$. This enables us to generalize the transition between a FFNS and a VFNS and essentially vary continuously between the two schemes; in this sense the matching scale $渭_m$ allows us to unify the FFNS and VFNS in a common framework. This paper provides a brief overview of xFitter with emphasis of these new features. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1808.08623v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1808.08623v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 26 August, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> August 2018. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">6 pages, 5 figures.

The dependence of the NNLO predictions and of the resulting value of $伪_s(M_Z)$ at the $Z$-boson mass $m_Z$ are studied as a function of the choice of the renormalisation and factorisation scales. Using inclusive jet and dijet data together, the strong coupling constant is determined to be $伪_s(M_Z)=0.1166\,(19)_{\rm exp}\,(24)_{\rm th}$. Complementary, $伪_s(M_Z)$ is determined together with parton distribution functions of the proton (PDFs) from jet and inclusive DIS data measured by the H1 experiment. The value $伪_s(M_Z)=0.1147\,(25)_{\rm tot}$ obtained is consistent with the determination from jet data alone. The impact of the jet data on the PDFs is studied. The running of the strong coupling is tested at different values of the renormalisation scale and the results are found to be in agreement with expectations. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1709.07251v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1709.07251v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 16 June, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 21 September, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2017. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">45 pages, 17 figures, with changes discussed in an erratum submitted to EPJ C</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Report number:</span> DESY17-137 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1709.01151">arXiv:1709.01151</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1709.01151">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1709.01151">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Phenomenology">hep-ph</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> xFitter 2.0.0: An Open Source QCD Fit Framework </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Bertone%2C+V">V.

It incorporates experimental data from a wide range of experiments including fixed-target, Tevatron, HERA, and LHC. xFitter can analyze this data up to next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) in perturbation theory with a variety of theoretical calculations including numerous methodological options for carrying out PDF fits and plotting tools which help visualize the results. While primarily based on the collinear factorization foundation, xFitter also provides facilities for fits of dipole models and transverse-momentum dependent (TMD) PDFs. The package can be used to study the impact of new precise measurements from hadron colliders, and also assess the impact of future colliders. This paper provides a brief overview of xFitter with emphasis of the new version 2.0.0 features. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1709.01151v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1709.01151v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 4 September, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2017. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">6 pages, 7 figures.Presented at 25th International Workshop on Deep Inelastic Scattering and Related Topics, 3-7 April 2017, Birmingham, UK.

The heavy quark matching scale $渭_{m}$ determines at which energy scale $渭$ the QCD theory transitions from $N_{F}$ to $N_{F}+1$ in the Variable Flavor Number Scheme (VFNS) for the evolution of the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) and strong coupling $伪_S(渭)$. We study the variation of the matching scales, and their impact on a global PDF fit of the combined HERA data. As the choice of the matching scale $渭_{m}$ effectively is a choice of scheme, this represents a theoretical uncertainty; ideally, we would like to see minimal dependence on this parameter. For the transition across the charm quark (from $N_{F}=3$ to $4$), we find a large $渭_m=渭_{c}$ dependence of the global fit $蠂^2$ at NLO, but this is significantly reduced at NNLO. For the transition across the bottom quark (from $N_{F}=4$ to $5$), we have a reduced $渭_{m}=渭_b$ dependence of the $蠂^2$ at both NLO and NNLO as compared to the charm. This feature is now implemented in xFitter 2.0.0, an open source QCD fit framework. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1707.05343v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1707.05343v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 21 December, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 17 July, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2017. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">18 pages, 12 figures.

Parton distribution functions (PDFs) need to be provided with matching accuracy, which in the case of QED effects involves introducing the photon parton distribution of the proton, $x纬(x,Q^2)$. In this work a determination of the photon PDF from fits to recent ATLAS measurements of high-mass Drell-Yan dilepton production at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV is presented. This analysis is based on the xFitter framework, and has required improvements both in the APFEL program, to account for NLO QED effects, and in the aMCfast interface to account for the photon-initiated contributions in the EW calculations within MadGraph5_aMC@NLO. The results are compared with other recent QED fits and determinations of the photon PDF, consistent results are found. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1701.08553v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1701.08553v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 30 January, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> January 2017. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">20 pages, 13 figures, to be submitted to JHEP</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1701.05838">arXiv:1701.05838</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1701.05838">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1701.05838">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Phenomenology">hep-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.96.014011">10.1103/PhysRevD.96.014011 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Parton Distribution Functions, $伪_s$ and Heavy-Quark Masses for LHC Run II </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Alekhin%2C+S">S.

Essential new elements of the fit are the combined data from HERA for inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (DIS), data from the fixed-target experiments NOMAD and CHORUS for neutrino-induced DIS, and data from Tevatron and the LHC for the Drell-Yan process and the hadro-production of single-top and top-quark pairs. The theory predictions include new improved approximations at NNLO for the production of heavy quarks in DIS and for the hadro-production of single-top quarks. The description of higher twist effects relevant beyond the leading twist collinear factorization approximation is refined. At NNLO we obtain the value $伪_s^{(n_f=5)}(M_Z) = 0.1147 \pm 0.0008$. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1701.05838v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1701.05838v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 20 January, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> January 2017. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">70 pages pdflatex, 34 figures, 15 tables</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Report number:</span> DESY 16-179, DO-TH 16/13 </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Phys.

The PROSA fit extends the precision of the PDFs to low x, which is the kinematic region of relevance for high-energy neutrino production, by taking into account LHCb data on charm and bottom hadroproduction. In the range of neutrino energies explored by present Very Large Volume Neutrino Telescopes, it is found that PDF uncertainties are far smaller with respect to those due to renormalization and factorization scale variation and to assumptions on the cosmic ray composition, which at present dominate and limit our knowledge of prompt neutrino fluxes. A discussion is presented on how these uncertainties affect the expected number of atmospheric prompt neutrino events in the analysis of high-energy events characterized by interaction vertices fully contained within the instrumented volume of the detector, performed by the IceCube collaboration. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1611.03815v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1611.03815v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 11 November, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2016. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">36 pages, 17 figures, 1 table</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Report number:</span> DESY 16-152 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.07417">arXiv:1609.07417</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1609.07417">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1609.07417">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Phenomenology">hep-ph</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> PDFs, $伪_s$, and quark masses from global fits </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Alekhin%2C+S">S.

In this work we present a determination of the MSbar charm mass from a fit to the inclusive and charm HERA deep-inelastic structure function data. The analysis is performed within the xFitter framework, with structure functions computed in the FONLL general-mass scheme as implemented in APFEL. In the case of the FONLL-C scheme, we obtain mc(mc) = 1.335 +- 0.043(exp) +0.019 -0.000(param) +0.011 -0.008(mod) +0.033 -0.008(th) GeV. We also perform an analogous determination in the fixed-flavor-number scheme at next-to-leading order, finding mc(mc) = 1.318 +- 0.054(exp) +0.011 -0.010(param) +0.015 -0.019(mod) +0.045 -0.004(th) GeV, compatible with the FONLL-C value. Our results are consistent with previous determinations from DIS data as well as with the PDG world average. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1605.01946v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1605.01946v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 6 May, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> May 2016. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">37 pages, 12 figures, 3 tables</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Report number:</span> OUTP-16-10P, DESY Report-16-078 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1603.09619">arXiv:1603.09619</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1603.09619">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1603.09619">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Phenomenology">hep-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.94.034035">10.1103/PhysRevD.94.034035 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> A QCD analysis of CMS inclusive differential Z production data at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Chatterjee%2C+R+M">Rajdeep M Chatterjee</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Guchait%2C+M">Monoranjan Guchait</a>, <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Placakyte%2C+R">Ringaile Placakyte</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="1603.09619v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> The parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton are one of the essential ingredients to describe physics processes at hadron colliders.

The Z boson production data at the LHC have a potential to constrain PDFs, especially the gluon distribution. In this study the CMS measurement of the inclusive double differential Z boson production cross section in terms of transverse momentum and rapidity are compared to the next-to-leading order theory predictions at the center-of-mass energy of sqrt(s)=8 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 19.71 inverse femtobarns. In addition, the sensitivity of this measurement to PDFs is studied within the framework of the HERAFitter. A moderate improvement to the gluon distribution is observed at the Bjorken x ~ 0.1 region. However, in order to obtain further improvement to the gluon distribution in the global fits, the higher-order theory calculations accessible via fast techniques are necessary. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1603.09619v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1603.09619v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 31 March, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> March 2016. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">9 pages, 5 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Phys.

PDF uncertainties impact a wide range of processes, from Higgs boson characterisation and precision Standard Model measurements to New Physics searches. A major recent development in modern PDF analyses has been to exploit the wealth of new information contained in precision measurements from the LHC Run I, as well as progress in tools and methods to include these data in PDF fits. In this report we summarise the information that PDF-sensitive measurements at the LHC have provided so far, and review the prospects for further constraining PDFs with data from the recently started Run II. This document aims to provide useful input to the LHC collaborations to prioritise their PDF-sensitive measurements at Run II, as well as a comprehensive reference for the PDF-fitting collaborations. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1507.00556v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1507.00556v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 2 July, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2015. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">55 pages, 13 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Report number:</span> OUTP-15-11P, LCTS/2015-14, GLAS-PPE/2015-01, DESY 15-088, JLAB-THY-15-2064, CERN-PH-TH-2015-150 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1503.05221">arXiv:1503.05221</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1503.05221">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1503.05221">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1503.05221">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Phenomenology">hep-ph</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> QCD analysis of $W$- and $Z$-boson production at Tevatron </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Camarda%2C+S">S.

The branching fraction measurements are statistically compatible with SM predictions and impose stringent constraints on several theories beyond the SM. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1411.4413v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1411.4413v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 August, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 17 November, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2014. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Correspondence should be addressed to cms-and-lhcb-publication-committees@cern.ch</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Report number:</span> CERN-PH-EP-2014-220, CMS-BPH-13-007, LHCb-PAPER-2014-049 </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Nature 522, 68-72 (04 June 2015) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1410.7007">arXiv:1410.7007</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1410.7007">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1410.7007">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Phenomenology">hep-ph</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Nucleon PDF separation with the collider and fixed-target data </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Alekhin%2C+S">S.

The impact of the associated (W + c) production data by CMS and ATLAS on the strange sea determination is also studied and a comparison with earlier results based on the collider data is discussed. Finally, the recent LHC and Tevatron data on the charged lepton asymmetry are compared to the NNLO ABM predictions and the potential of this input in improving the non-strange sea distributions is evaluated. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1410.7007v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1410.7007v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 13 February, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 26 October, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> October 2014. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Few typos fixed</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Report number:</span> DESY 14-196, LPN 14-120, SFB/CPP-14-81 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1410.4412">arXiv:1410.4412</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1410.4412">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1410.4412">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Phenomenology">hep-ph</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> HERAFitter, Open Source QCD Fit Project </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Alekhin%2C+S">S.

It encodes results from a wide range of experimental measurements in lepton-proton deep inelastic scattering and proton-proton (proton-antiproton) collisions at hadron colliders. These are complemented with a variety of theoretical options for calculating PDF-dependent cross section predictions corresponding to the measurements. The framework covers a large number of the existing methods and schemes used for PDF determination. The data and theoretical predictions are brought together through numerous methodological options for carrying out PDF fits and plotting tools to help visualise the results. While primarily based on the approach of collinear factorisation, HERAFitter also provides facilities for fits of dipole models and transverse-momentum dependent PDFs. The package can be used to study the impact of new precise measurements from hadron colliders. This paper describes the general structure of HERAFitter and its wide choice of options. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1410.4412v3-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1410.4412v3-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 29 May, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 16 October, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> October 2014. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">18 pages, 7 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Report number:</span> DESY Report 14-188 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1404.6469">arXiv:1404.6469</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1404.6469">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1404.6469">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1404.6469">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Phenomenology">hep-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Experiment">hep-ex</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.91.094002">10.1103/PhysRevD.91.094002 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Determination of Strange Sea Quark Distributions from Fixed-target and Collider Data </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/hep-ph?searchtype=author&amp;query=Alekhin%2C+S">S.
