Description

I will review the recent progress on the understanding the proton's structure, and specifically the Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) that describe the longitudinal momentum distributions of its constituents. I will mostly focus on the inclusion of the resummation of classes of logarithms in the theory adopted for their extraction from data. I will also comment on the phenomenological impact at the LHC of these developments.
