Evolution program for parton densities with perturbative heavy flavor boundary conditions
Description
Abstract A new code for the scale evolution of modified-minimal-subtraction-scheme parton densities is described. Through next-to-leading order the program uses exact evolution kernels. In next-to-next-to-leading order approximate evolution kernels are used. For efficiency the program includes analytical results for the evaluation of the weights required for the integrations over the longitudinal momentum fractions of the partons. It also incorporates the operator matrix elements required for the matc...
