The analysis is performed using a new iterative Monte Carlo fitting technique which generates stable fits to polarized parton distribution functions (PDFs) with statistically rigorous uncertainties. Inclusion of the Jefferson Lab data leads to a reduction in the PDF errors for the valence and sea quarks, as well as in the gluon polarization uncertainty at x 0.1. The study also provides the first determination of the flavor-separated twist-3 PDFs and the d2 moment of the nucleon within a global PDF analysis. © 2016 American Physical Society.[SDGs]SDG14Iterative Monte Carlo analysis of spin-dependent parton distributions ITERATIVE MONTE CARLO ANALYSIS of SPIN- ...
