  12. ~LHCb Effect of PDF uncertainties on cross-sections • Region where the most precise EW tests can be made. • At highest rapidities, PDFs can be constrained. • Experimental statistical error <<1%. • Systematic error likely to be ~1% Z W+ W- Percentage uncertainty on cross-sections due to PDF Ronan McNulty, Workshop on Heavy Particles at the LHC, Pauli Centre, ETH, Zurich, 05.01.2011

  13. But you can do better ! So ratio of Ws is sensitive to d to u ratio. (For LHCb dv/uv) W asymmetry is sensitive to difference in u and d. (For LHCb uv-dv) Ratio of Z to W is almost insensitive to PDFs! Gold plated test of SM at the highest energies Ronan McNulty, Workshop on Heavy Particles at the LHC, Pauli Centre, ETH, Zurich, 05.01.2011

  14. Effect of PDF uncertainties on cross-sections • RWZ precise test of SM everywhere. • Difference in u and d quarks can be significantly improved by all experiments at the LHC. • Going forward, you increasingly constrain the u-valence to d-valence ratio. • Even nicer, most experimental systematics (especially luminosity) cancel in the ratio.
