Impact of the PDFs on the Z and W lineshapes at LHC
Abstract The parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton play a role in determining the lineshape of Z and W bosons produced at the LHC. In particular, the mode of the gauge boson virtuality is shifted with respect to the pole due to the dependence of the partonic luminosity on the boson virt...
