fastNLO: Fast pQCD Calculations for PDF Fits

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2017-08-23 v2

Abstract

We present a method for very fast repeated computations of higher-order cross sections in hadron-induced processes for arbitrary parton density functions. A full implementation of the method for computations of jet cross sections in Deep-Inelastic Scattering and in Hadron-Hadron Collisions is offered by the "fastNLO" project. A web-interface for online calculations and user code can be found at http://hepforge.cedar.ac.uk/fastnlo/ .
