PDF and QCD eects in the precision measurement of the W boson mass at CDF

A sample of W \rightarrow ev (W \rightarrow \mu v) and Z^0 \rightarrow e^+e^- (Z^0 \rightarrow \mu^+\mu^-) events recorded by the CDF detector for pp- collisions at \sqrt(s-hat) = 1:96 TeV with a total integrated luminosity of 2.3 fb^-1 are used to evaluate the systematic uncertainty in the determin...
