Uncertainties of Parton Distribution Functions Daniel Stump Michigan State University & CTEQ Sept 2003 PHYSTAT

High energy particles interact through their quark and gluon constituents – the partons. Asymptotic freedom : the parton cross sections can be approximated by perturbation theory. Factorization theorem : Parton distribution functions in the nucleon are the link between the PQCD theory and measurements on nucleons. Sept 2003 PHYSTAT

Parton distribution functions are important. Sept 2003 PHYSTAT

Experiments in high-energy physics may involve high precision measurements at hadron colliders HERA e-p e+p Tevatron pp LHC pp Any experiment with a nucleon in the initial state will require PDF’s for the analysis and interpretation of the experiment. Sept 2003 PHYSTAT

The goals of QCD global analysis are to find accurate PDF’s; to know the uncertainties of the PDF’s; to enable predictions, including uncertainties. Sept 2003 PHYSTAT

J. Collins and D. Soper, CTEQ Note 94/01, hep-ph/9411214. The systematic study of uncertainties of PDF’s developed slowly. Pioneers… J. Collins and D. Soper, CTEQ Note 94/01, hep-ph/9411214. C. Pascaud and F. Zomer, LAL-95-05. M. Botje, Eur. Phys. J. C 14, 285 (2000). Today many groups and individuals are involved in this research. Sept 2003 PHYSTAT

Current research on PDF uncertainties CTEQ group at Michigan State (J. Pumplin, D. Stump, WK. Tung, HL. Lai, P. Nadolsky, J. Huston, R. Brock) and others (S. Kuhlmann, F. Olness, J. Owens) MRST group (A. Martin, R. Roberts, J. Stirling, R. Thorne) Fermilab group (W. Giele, S. Keller, D. Kosower) S. I. Alekhin V. Barone, C. Pascaud, F. Zomer; add B.
