Description
Investigate nonperturbative contributions and their impact on the Z-boson pT-spectrum at small pT, determine the relevant parameters by fitting available precision predictions and measurements of the Z-boson pT-spectrum, and investigate their impact on the precision determination of the strong coupling and PDFs from the Z pT spectrum.
- about 40% physics, 30% numerical analysis and 30% coding (C++, Python)
