Global DGLAP fit analyses of the nPDF: EKS98 and HKM

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The DGLAP analyses of the nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDF) based on the global fits to the data are reviewed, and the results from EKS98 and HKM are compared. The usefulness of measuring hard probes in pApA collisions, at the LHC in particular, is demonstrated.
