Description
We present the current global analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions (PDFs) with the nCTEQ approach. Recent LHC data on W/Z-boson, single-inclusive hadron (SIH) and heavy quark/quarkonium (HQ) production are shown to constrain not only the gluon density down to $x\geq10^{-5}$, but to also influence the strange quark density. The consistency with neutrino deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) and charm dimuon production experiments, the impact of the underlying proton PDFs and of target mass and other corrections is also discussed.
