Description
We present the MMHT2014 PDFs, an update of the previous major release in the
same framework, i.e. MSTW2008. We discuss the changes in both the central values
and uncertainties in the PDFs due to changes in theoretical procedures and the impact of new, largely LHC data-sets. We note, however, that changes in predictions are
rather small. We discuss the correlation between the PDFs and the strong coupling
constant and the constraint on the latter. We also highlight plans for the future.
