Determination of Strange Sea Quark Distributions from Fixed-target and Collider Data
We present an improved determination of the strange sea distribution in the
nucleon with constraints coming from the recent charm production data in
neutrino-nucleon deep-inelastic scattering by the NOMAD and CHORUS experiments
and from charged current inclusive deep-inelastic scattering at HERA. We
demonstrate that the results are consistent with the data from the ATLAS and
the CMS experiments on the associated production of -bosons with
-quarks. We also discuss issues related to the recent strange sea
determination by the ATLAS experiment using LHC collider data.Comment: 23 pages, 14 figure
