Description

I present a summary of the current status of MMHT PDFs. Recent updates include the effects of additional data from the LHC. The inclusion of new jet data and of the full NNLO corrections to the cross sections are studied. We also look at the implications from improved data on vector boson production and how these affect the quark flavour decomposition. Another focus is the inclusion of QED corrections and the photon PDF.
