Parton distributions for the LHC

TL;DR: In this paper, a preliminary set of updated NLO parton distributions and their uncertainties determined from CCFR and NuTeV dimuon cross sections are presented, along with additional jet data from HERA and the Tevatron.

Flavour anomalies after the $R_{K^*}$ measurement.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the LHCb measurement of the $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$ ratios alone constrain the chiralities of the states contributing to these anomalies, and find deviations from the Standard Model at the 4σigma$ level.

B -physics anomalies: a guide to combined explanations

TL;DR: In this article, an Effective Field Theory (EFT) approach based on the hypothesis of New Physics coupled predominantly to the third generation of left-handed quarks and leptons is proposed.

Flavour anomalies after the R K ∗ measurement

TL;DR: In this article, the LHCb measurement of the μ/e ratio R� K indicates a deficit with respect to the Standard Model prediction, supporting earlier hints of lepton universality violation observed in the R K ratio.

From the Trees to the Forest: A Review of Radiative Neutrino Mass Models

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of neutrino masses and their properties in tree-level radiative models is presented, where neutrinos are massless at tree level, with their mass (typically Majorana) being generated radiatively at one or more loops.

Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis

TL;DR: In this article, a critical review of the current status of cosmological nucleosynthesis is given, where the baryon-to-photon ratio of deuterium and helium-4 is consistent with the independent determination of $\eta$ from observations of anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background.

New generation of parton distributions with uncertainties from global QCD analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, a new generation of parton distribution functions with increased precision and quantitative estimates of uncertainties is presented, using a recently developed eigenvector-basis approach to the hessian method, which provides the means to quickly estimate the uncertainties of a wide range of physical processes at these high-energy hadron colliders, based on current knowledge of the parton distributions.
