The major differences between the new version 6.06 and the previous version 5.02 of W5051 PDF, the Parton Density Functions package are listed below:
A NEW
group of PHOTON
structure function sets have been added:
NLL
sets of Hagiwara, Tanaka, Watanabe and Izubuchi,
the WHIT group, (WHIT1-G
to WHIT6-G
).
Several NUCLEON
structure function sets have been added:
NLL
sets A'
and G
of Martin, Roberts and Stirling
(MRS-Ap
) and (MRS-G
) of February 1995 with grid
data as well as in its parametrized version (MRS-Ap-F
)
and (MRS-G-Fit
);
NLL
parametrisation in the CTEQ3M
, CTEQ3D
, CTEQ3L
);
NLL
in the GRV94-MS
,
GRV94-DI
, GRV-LO
).
Please note that as new default set, the MRS
set
(G
) has been chosen (NPTYPE=1, NGROUP=3, NSET=41
).
For more details see the updated User's Manual.
The response from the Physics community is strongly encouraging us to keep up-to-date with the latest developments in this area. The author will be pleased to learn about new parton density functions, as well as to receive suggestions on how to improve both the usage and the documentation.
