Description

TMDs match collinear PDFs in the limit of small transverse distances. We study the bias on the TMD extraction caused by the choice of the PDF set. The bias is reduced by introducing a flavour dependence on the TMD profile and taking into account the PDF uncertainty. Both points improve the agreement between theory and experiment and should be taken into account in future global analyses.
