What PDFs are available for online event generation?

Asked by Richard Ruiz

Dear Experts,

I am using the online gui to generate my datasets with MG5. However, I am interested in using a non-CTEQ6 PDF set. Is there a list of alternative PDF sets that can be used online? Can any lhapdf set be used so long as I make the necessary changed to run_card.dat*?

cheers
richard

*i.e.,
 'lhapdf' = pdlabel ! PDF set
 12345 = lhaid

Dear Richard,

> Can any lhapdf set be used so long as I make the necessary changed to run_card.dat*?

No this options is not available on the cluster (this should be the case when we will pass to MG5 v2.0.0 on the web)

Is there a list of alternative PDF sets that can be used online?
