NNLO Global Analysis of Polarized Parton Distribution Functions
read the original abstract
We present a next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) global QCD analysis of the proton's helicity parton distribution functions (PDFs), the first of its kind. To obtain the distributions, we use data for longitudinal spin asymmetries in inclusive and semi-inclusive lepton-nucleon scattering as well as in weak-boson and hadron or jet production in proton-proton scattering. We analyze the data using QCD perturbation theory at NNLO accuracy, employing approximations provided by the threshold resummation formalism in cases where full NNLO results for partonic hard-scattering functions are not readily available. Our numerical results suggest a remarkable perturbative stability of the extracted helicity PDFs.

Toward Precision Helicity PDFs from Global DIS and SIDIS Fits with Projected EIC Measurements
Projected EIC pion and kaon SIDIS measurements would substantially reduce the uncertainties on the proton's sea-quark and gluon helicity distributions, most strongly at small momentum fractions.

Global analyses of helicity-dependent parton distribution functions
Modern global QCD analyses agree that up-quark helicity is positive and down-quark helicity negative, with positive gluon polarisation at moderate x, while the full gluon spin moment remains limited by the unmeasured ...
