Description
Collinear Parton Distribution Functions of the nucleon continue to be a very active field of theoretical and experimental research. Because of their universality, they can be extracted from - and affect the interpretation of - a wide range of experiments: hadron collisions, Drell-Yan and W production, and Deep Inelastic Scattering. A rich experimental program is underway at high-energy colliders like the LHC and RHIC, as well as fixed-target experiments at COMPASS/AMBER and Jefferson Lab. In the future, new data from the EIC will vastly augment the kinematic reach of the existing data. I will give a short overview of the present experimental status, with a few selected examples of recent and upcoming measurements.
