Description

Abstract: "The HERA collider has provided high precision data which is nowadays essential to constrain the proton structure and has a very important impact for the LHC physics program. The LHeC offers the possibility of an enlarged kinematical range with higher luminosities, as well as the possibilit of colliding different species like deuterons. In this talk we examine, using as a baseline the NNPDF2.0 global parton analysis, the impact of LHeC pseudo-data in different scenarios in reducing the PDF uncertainties".
