Description

A method to facilitate the inclusion of collider data in the PDF fits, APPLGRID, has been extended to the NNLO accuracy. The method stores the matrix elements of the NNLO calculations to the look-up tables. This allows the a posteriori inclusion of the PDF sets and the strong coupling to the cross-section calculations.
