Neural Network Determination of Parton Distribution Functionsm

Lead Research Organisation: University of Edinburgh
Department Name: Sch of Physics and Astronomy

Abstract

Working with the NNPDF collaboration to more precisely determine parton distribution functions which describe the structure of the internal constituents (quarks and gluons) of protons. Specifically, the integration of perturbative QCD theory and associated errors into the framework.
