On the positivity of MSbar parton distributions
read the original abstract
We revisit our argument that shows that parton distribution Functions (PDFs) in the MSbar{ scheme are non-negative in the perturbative region, with the main goals of elucidating its domain of validity and clarifying its theoretical underpinnings. We specifically discuss recent results proving that PDFs can turn negative at sufficiently low scale, we clarify quantitatively various aspects of our derivation of positivity in the perturbative region, and we provide an estimate for the scale above which PDF positivity holds.

A Determination of the Top Mass from a Global PDF Analysis
The top-quark pole mass is determined to be 172.80 ± 0.26 GeV from a global NNPDF analysis at approximate N³LO QCD including NLO QED, EW, and toponium corrections.
