In this review talk I discuss the latest developments in the DGLAP-based global analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs), focusing on the recent EPS09, nCTEQ and DSSZ global fits. I also briefly review the recent analysis for assigning a spatial dependence to the globally analysed nPDFs, resulting in the new sets EPS09s and EKS98s ("s" for spatial). With these, one can now compute nuclear hard-process cross sections and estimate their nPDF-originating uncertainties in different centrality classes for the first time consistently with the global nPDF fits.

  1. Energy loss and theoretical uncertainties in small quark-gluon plasmas

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A pQCD energy loss model with short-pathlength corrections shows the large formation time approximation fails self-consistently and, after a one-parameter fit, describes RHIC small systems while failing LHC small systems.
