Additional information

This paper makes the first attempt to extract information on parton distributions from ATLAS data. I took the lead in making a PDf fit to W and Z data from ATLAS together with the HERA combined data. We found that the shape of the Z rapidity distribution together with the relative normalisations of the W and Z data indicated a larger strange quark density at Bjorken x~0.01 than is conventionally assumed.
