QCDNUM: Fast QCD evolution and convolution

This program has been imported from the CPC Program Library held at Queen's University Belfast (1969-2018)

Abstract
The QCDNUM program numerically solves the evolution equations for parton densities and fragmentation functions in perturbative QCD. Un-polarised parton densities can be evolved up to next-to-next-to-leading order in powers of the strong coupling constant, while polarised densities or fragmentation functions can be evolved up to next-to-leading order. Other types of evolution can be accessed by feeding alternative sets of evolution kernels into the program. A versatile convolution engine provi...

Title of program: QCDNUM version: 17.00
Catalogue Id: AEHV_v1_0

Nature of problem
Evolution of the strong coupling constant and parton densities, up to next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. Computation of observable quantities by Mellin convolution of the evolved densities with partonic cross-sections.
