Abstract: We present a preliminary set of updated NLO parton distributions. For the first time we have a quantitative extraction of the strange quark and antiquark distributions and their uncertainties determined from CCFR and NuTeV dimuon cross sections. Additional jet data from HERA and the Tevatron improve our gluon extraction. Lepton asymmetry data and neutrino structure functions improve the flavour separation, particularly constraining the down quark valence distribution.

Figures
Figure 24: The reduced cross section σ̃(x,Q2) for a selection of HERA data and the structure function F2(x,Q 2) for a selection of fixed-target data. The curves represent σ̃(x,Q2), evaluated at the HERA centre-of-mass energy, and so for the high x and low Q2 values corresponding to fixed-target data, y is negligible and the curves effectively represent the required F2(x,Q 2). The normalisations of data sets are those in the best fit at NNLO, found in Table 3. These are very similar to those at NLO, but at LO the HERA data would be 0.5–1% lower in general.

The error ellipses, calculated using the one-sigma error sets, are shown for the MSTW 2008 NLO and NNLO PDFs. ![Figure 44: A comparison of theory and data for W → µν charge asymmetry from DØ [49].](/figures/figure44-1-445qpxeeihpi.png)

TL;DR: In this paper, the associated production of a Z boson or an off-shell photon gamma* with a bottom quark in the forward region was studied using proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7TeV.

Numerical recipes
TL;DR: This section discusses a particular type of low-pass filter, well-adapted for data smoothing, and termed variously Savitzky-Golay, least-squares, or DISPO (Digital Smoothing Polynomial) filters.

A method for the solution of certain non – linear problems in least squares
TL;DR: In this article, the problem of least square problems with non-linear normal equations is solved by an extension of the standard method which insures improvement of the initial solution, which can also be considered an extension to Newton's method.

TL;DR: MadGraph5 aMC@NLO as discussed by the authors is a computer program capable of handling all these computations, including parton-level fixed order, shower-matched, merged, in a unified framework whose defining features are flexibility, high level of parallelisation and human intervention limited to input physics quantities.
