The accurate determination of the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton is an
essential ingredient of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) program. PDF uncertainties impact …

A key problem in making precise perturbative QCD predictions is to set the proper
renormalization scale of the running coupling. The conventional scale-setting procedure …

We present new parton distribution functions (PDFs) at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO)
from the CTEQ-TEA global analysis of quantum chromodynamics. These differ from previous …

A search for the associated production of the Higgs boson with a top quark pair (tt¯ H) is
reported. The search is performed in multilepton final states using a data set corresponding …

We present LO, NLO and NNLO sets of parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton
determined from global analyses of the available hard scattering data. These MMHT2014 …

A bstract This is a second paper in our ongoing calculation of the next-to-next-to-leading
order (NNLO) QCD correction to the total inclusive top-pair production cross-section at …

This Report summarises the results of the second year's activities of the LHC Higgs Cross
Section Working Group. The main goal of the working group was to present the state of the …

The inclusive cross section for top quark pair production is measured in proton-proton
collisions at sqrt (s)= 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to 5.0 and 19.7 invers-femtobarns …

A search for weakly interacting massive dark-matter particles produced in association with
bottom or top quarks is presented. Final states containing third-generation quarks and …

A measurement of the jet activity in ttbar events produced in proton-proton collisions at a
centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV is presented, using 2.05 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity …
