The complexity of collider data analyses has dramatically increased from early colliders to the CERN LHC. Reconstruction of the collision products in the particle detectors has reached a point that requires dedicated publications…

This paper presents a personal point of view on the prospects open for top quark physics analyses at the LHC with 10 fb$^{-1}$ of pp collisions at 7 TeV. We discuss the main directions for improvement for the analyses presented at TOP2011…

We present a review of the conceptual basis, present knowledge and recent progress in the field of global analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions (PDFs). After introducing the theoretical foundations and methodological approaches…

A summary of the on-going preparations from the ATLAS and CMS collaborations to perform top quark physics in Run II of the LHC and at the HL-LHC is given. To maintain the current level of precision and profit from the high-luminosity…

We briefly discuss some of the developments since the publication of the MMHT14 parton distributions. In particular we explore the impact of recent LHC data for $W^\pm,Z$ and $t\bar{t}$ production, and perform a preliminary new analysis…

The Fortran LHAPDF library has been a long-term workhorse in particle physics, providing standardised access to parton density functions for experimental and phenomenological purposes alike, following on from the venerable PDFLIB package.…

We report on the progress in updating our global analysis of nuclear PDFs. In particular, we will discuss the inclusion of double differential 5.02 TeV dijet and D-meson measurements, as well as 8.16 TeV W-production data from p-Pb…

Data collected by the LHCb experiment allow proton structure functions to be probed in a kinematic region beyond the reach of other experiments, both at the LHC and further afield. In these proceedings the significant impact of LHCb Run 1…

Top quark physics continues to be an exciting and fast moving research area. The large statistics provided by the LHC are allowing us to measure processes never observed before and to develop new methods to improve the precision for the…

This article summarises the physics at future linear colliders. It will be shown that in all studied physics scenarios a 1 TeV linear collider in addition to the LHC will enhance our knowledge significantly and helps to reconstruct the…

For the foreseeable future, the exploration of the high-energy frontier will be the domain of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Of particular significance will be its high-luminosity upgrade (HL-LHC), which will operate until the mid-2030s.…

I review recent progress in the NNPDF global analyses of parton distributions (PDFs) focusing on developments contributing to its new upcoming release: NNPDF4.0. The NNPDF4.0 determination represents unprecedented progress in three main…

The new CERN proton-proton collider, the LHC, is about to start in 2007 its data taking. Millions of top quarks will be available out of these data, allowing to perform a wide range of precision measurements and searches for new physics. An…

The potential of the LHeC, a future electron-proton collider, for precision Deep Inelastic Scattering measurements is reviewed with particular emphasis on the reduction of uncertainties on the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the…

We review the present situation in top quark physics, in these early days of Run II of the LHC. We take mostly a Standard Model perspective, showing recent results, and review the key concepts and results of the associated theoretical…

A thorough understanding of PDFs and their uncertainties is important for the LHC and for future collider experiments. The recently released NNPDF3.0 set was presented alongside results from closure tests, where PDF fits were performed on…

We summarize recent progress toward the next generation of CTEQ-TEA parton distribution functions, CT25, based on a global NNLO analysis that incorporates a significant sample of newly included LHC data. We present a baseline fit within the…

The LHC has recently released precise measurements of the transverse momentum distribution of the Z-boson that provide a unique constraint on the structure of the proton. Theoretical developments now allow the prediction of these…

This overview focusses on recent developments, in the most part triggered by LHC data, aimed at the development of a reliable and complete theoretical description of high-p$_t$ physics in heavy ion collisions. Particular emphasis is placed…

The capabilities of the ATLAS and CMS detectors being prepared for the LHC are reviewed. Examples of physics signals accessible during early running and during mature high luminosity LHC operation are examined. The planning and options for…
