GRV Parton distributions

The GRV parton distributions are produced by M. Glück, E. Reya and A. Vogt.

Definitions

The GRV parton distributions available here are defined at next-to-leading order in the MSbar scheme. The GRV92 partons include u,d,s,c and b quarks. The GRV94 partons include only u,d and s quarks. The authors intend that these will be used in calculations in which heavier quarks are included, with non-zero quark masses, in the partonic hard scattering cross section. Please read the GRV paper listed above. The strong coupling runs with the beta function changing at c and b thresholds (mu = M_Q).
