SUMMARY:National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory Seminar: Non-perturbative studies of Parton Distributi
DESCRIPTION:
 Parton distribution functions (PDFs) encode the 
 non-perturbative structure of hadrons and their 
 knowledge is essential for our ability to 
 predict experimentally measured cross sections. 
 They play an important role in discovering 
 new physics at high energy collider experiments 
 as well as in our understanding of the 
 internal structure of hadrons. However, up until 
 recently, PDFs could only be determined from 
 experimental data while first principles 
 theoretical computations were not possible. Novel 
 ideas that came along have opened new avenues 
 for ab initio parton distribution function 
 computations. This seminar will present the 
 basic ideas that are underlying these computations 
 and review recent numerical results.
