Description
We present the MMHT14 PDFs, an update of the previous major release in
the same framework, i.e. MSTW08. 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.
