    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Pion PDFs from holographic light-front QCD are consistent with global analyses and produce J/ψ cross sections matching experimental data across energies and targets.

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Pion PDFs derived from holographic light-front wave functions yield NLO J/ψ production cross sections in pion-nucleus collisions that agree with data.

  3. An Analysis on the Parton Distribution Functions of Heavy Mesons

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Light-cone quark model PDFs for kaon and heavy mesons are evolved via NLO DGLAP to predict EIC structure functions and COMPASS Drell-Yan cross sections while showing heavy constituents dominate momentum fractions.
