Structure functions and parton distributions [PDF]
In this talk, I review the status of theoretical understanding of nuclear structure functions and parton distributions and discuss the constraints on nuclear parton distributions from existing data and the global QCD analysis.Comment: Latex, 10 pages, to

Abstract Soil organic carbon (SOC) is central to the global carbon cycle, yet unsustainable cultivation has resulted in a continuing SOC loss and has made it highly vulnerable to future climate change. In China, the Well‐Facilitated Farmland Construction (WFC) initiative has sought to enhance soil conditions by integrating farmland management units ...

We provide an assessment of the state of the art in various issues related to experimental measurements, phenomenological methods and theoretical results relevant for the determination of parton distribution functions (PDFs) and their uncertainties, with the specific aim of providing benchmarks of different existing approaches and results in view of ...

Do Lagged Ecosystem Feedbacks to Hydroclimate Extremes Promote Resilience of Forest Watersheds?
Abstract Hydroclimate extremes (e.g., droughts and wet periods) can significantly alter forest ecohydrological processes. Severe growing‐season droughts can reduce leaf area index (LAI), tree conductivity, and growing‐season length through early senescence. These strategies reduce transpiration (green water use), conserve subsurface water storage while

Intrinsic bottom and its impact on heavy new physics at the LHC
Heavy quark parton distribution functions (PDFs) play an important role in several Standard Model and New Physics processes. Most analyses rely on the assumption that the charm and bottom PDFs are generated perturbatively by gluon splitting and do not ...

Quark Imaging in the Proton Via Quantum Phase-Space Distributions
We develop the concept of quantum phase-space (Wigner) distributions for quarks and gluons in the proton. To appreciate their physical content, we analyze the contraints from special relativity on the interpretation of elastic form factors, and examine ...

On positivity of parton distributions [PDF]
We discuss the bounds on polarized parton distributions which follow from their definition in terms of cross section asymmetries. We spell out how the bounds obtained in the naive parton model can be derived within perturbative QCD at leading order when ...

Pravastatin Corrects Endothelial Dysfunction in Ex Vivo Uterine Radial Arteries in Preeclampsia
ABSTRACT Aim Endothelium‐dependent relaxation in isolated uterine radial arteries from normotensive (NT) and preeclamptic (PE) pregnancies, and the acute effects of pravastatin in the latter vessels were assessed. Pravastatin is hypothesized to alleviate endothelial dysfunction in PE via modulating aspects of NO and endothelium‐derived ...
