1 Nuclear PDFs: latest update (and future facilities) P. Zurita February 16th, 2017 Wright laboratory, Yale University, CT, USA

2 Disclaimer I will talk only about observables included in PDFs and npdfs fits, computed with dear old pqcd. Any other measurement can eventually be included, just not part of the talk :)

3 Outline The questions: what, why, how? Where were we? Where are we? Where are we going? Summary

4 WHAT? What are PDFs? d (p + l! l 0 + X) = X a dˆla!l 0 X f a d (p + l! l 0 + X + h) = X a,b dˆla!b f a D h b d (p + p! l++l ) = X a,b dˆab!l l f a f b d (p + p! X + h) = X a,b,c dˆab!c f a f b D h c

5 WHAT? What are PDFs? d (p + l! l 0 + X) = X a dˆla!l 0 X f a d (p + l! l 0 + X + h) = X a,b dˆla!b f a D h b d (p + p! l++l ) = X a,b dˆab!l l f a f b d (p + p! X + h) = X a,b,c dˆab!c f a f b D h c hard

6 WHAT? What are PDFs? d (p + l! l 0 + X) = X a dˆla!l 0 X f a d (p + l! l 0 + X + h) = X a,b dˆla!b f a D h b d (p + p! l++l ) = X a,b dˆab!l l f a f b d (p + p! X + h) = X a,b,c dˆab!c f a f b D h c SOFT

7 WHAT? But the title reads nuclear PDFs

8 WHAT? But the title reads nuclear PDFs early 80 s: measurement of DIS crosssections in e-a collisions d 2 eh!ex dxdq 2 = 4 2 e.m. xq 4 " 1 y + y2 2! F 2 (x, Q 2 ) y 2 2 F L(x, Q 2 ) #

9 WHAT?

10 WHAT? effect in cross-section is this a hard, soft or hard and soft effect?

11 WHAT? pqcd is successful don t want to throw it away the proposal is: factorization holds change only in the soft part

12 WHAT? so now d (A + l! l 0 + X) = X a dˆla!l 0 X f A a d (A + l! l 0 + X + h) = X a,b dˆla!b f A a D h b d (A + p! l++l ) = X a,b dˆab!l l f A a f b d (A + p! X + h) = X a,b,c dˆab!c f A a f b D h c

13 WHY? do I need these? really? WHY?

14 WHY? do I need these? really? WHY? because in QCD they are crucial for describing the perturbative regime of

15 WHY? do I need these? really? WHY? because in QCD they are crucial for describing the perturbative regime of nuclear DIS

16 WHY? do I need these? really? WHY? because in QCD they are crucial for describing the perturbative regime of nuclear DIS non QGP effects in p-a, d-a, A-A

17 WHY? do I need these? really? WHY? because in QCD they are crucial for describing the perturbative regime of nuclear DIS non QGP effects in p-a, d-a, A-A cosmic rays

18 WHY? do I need these? really? WHY? because in QCD they are crucial for describing the perturbative regime of nuclear DIS non QGP effects in p-a, d-a, A-A cosmic rays neutrino DIS (needed for proton PDFs)

19 HOW? How? All soft contributions are determined by global QCD analyses

26 HOW? too good to be true

27 HOW? too good to be true which data sets? to which order? heavy quarks mass effects? scales? error treatment? weights? parameters??

49 WHERE ARE WE? the new set is great, but what have we learned so far? - call for flavour separation in the npdfs can be answered by data - di-jets strongly depend on proton PDFs - accurate FFs needed

67 Summary several sets of npdfs available strange and gluon distributions not yet well constrained by data the LHC and RHIC crucial to study the low x region EIC (LHeC?) to go further

68 ongoing and to do nuclear effects truly universal? correlated errors? more data in DY? high pt particle production? cross-sections instead of structure functions? nuclear effects for deuteron? more flexible parameterizations? higher fixed-order analyses? A-A collisions? centrality dependence? final state nuclear effects?...???
