We propose a new and rather stringent criterion for testing the goodness of fit between a theory and experiment. It is motivated by the paradox that the criterion on \chi^2 for testing a theory is much weaker than the criterion for finding the best fit value of a parameter in the theory. We present a method by which the stronger parameter-fitting criterion can be applied to subsets of data in a global fit.

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Fanto10 and Fanto10_n15 are new NLO pion PDF ensembles that propagate parametrization and nuclear-target uncertainty, allowing a large gluon-sea anticorrelation and even zero gluon at low scales.

    hep-ph 2019-12 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    New CT18 PDFs at NLO and NNLO from global fit to HERA plus LHC jet, Drell-Yan, top-pair and Z data, with Hessian errors, Lagrange-multiplier studies, and alternate sets for data tensions and scale choices.
