Description
In the global analysis of nuclear Parton Distribution Functions
(nPDFs), one of the major sources of debate is how to include the
neutrino Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) data. The controversy comes
from the precise NuTeV neutrino DIS data which might indicate an
incompatibility with neutral current charged lepton DIS data. The
compatibility of NuTeV data was studied independently by several
PDF-fitting groups, and the results are without consensus. In this
work, we re-examine the neutrino DIS data with special emphasis on the
normalization error in the NuTeV data. Precise understanding of the
neutrino DIS will help determine the strange content of the proton.
