High-$x$ quark density and their impact on $Z^{\prime }$-boson dilepton searches

Abstract

In this proceeding, we study the influence of theoretical systematic uncertainties due to the quark density on LHC experimental searches for $Z^{\prime }$-bosons. Using an approach originally proposed in the context of the ABMP16 PDF set for the high-$x$ behaviour of the quark density, we presents results on differential cross section and Forward-Backward asymmetry observables commonly used to study $Z^{\prime }$ signals in dilepton channels.
