Description
We present recent developments in the global analysis of the proton, including those within the CT25 family of precision parton distribution functions (PDFs) and related theoretical and methodological advances. Beyond the phenomenological implications of CT25 for collider predictions at the LHC and elsewhere, we also discuss novel approaches to nonperturbative parametrization and the growing role of AI/ML techniques in the hadron structure inferencing problem. Together, these efforts point toward a more flexible and expressive framework for extracting PDFs from an increasingly diverse body of high-energy data.
