Understanding and constraining the PDF uncertainties in a W boson mass measurement with forward muons at the LHC
Abstract Precision electroweak tests are a powerful probe of physics beyond the Standard Model, but the sensitivity is limited by the precision with which the W boson mass ($$M_W$$ MW ) has been measured. The Parton Distribution Function (PDF) uncertainties are a potential limitation for measurement...
