Constraints on parton distribution functions from charged current deep inelastic scattering

J. F. Owens

Abstract

Progress in the determination of parton distribution functions (PDFs) relies on the ability to separately determine the PDFs corresponding to different parton flavors. In this talk I present some examples of what is currently known and discuss ways to improve the state-of-the-art using charged current deep inelastic scattering.
