Parton distribution functions
Hello
I plotted the Parton distribution functions in Mathematica. Now I want to compare the graphs drawn with the graphs of other groups(xu and xd). How should I do this?

Are you just asking how to plot several graphs in the same plot in mathematica? In that case I guess have a look here https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/Plot.html, the second syntax is what you want. Maybe I am not understanding what the question is?
 
I'm asking about comparing my results with other groups. I don't have other groups data such as H1, Cteq. I Plotted my results in Mathematica and I have other groups article. now, how can I compare these without their Mathematica codes?
 
If I type "graph of parton distribution functions" into Google, I get two million hits. OK, so they are not all useful, I am sure, but there are many dozens (probably hundreds) of such plots, and so I conclude that isn't what you want.

You need to be more descriptive in what you want - and this is the third time you've been asked.

Different groups publish their results in different formats, have you checked out their respective websites?

There is a universal interface called lhapdf https://lhapdf.hepforge.org/ where you will probably find any today relevant (proton) pdf set. I don't think they have a native Mathematica interface but the python one is pretty usable if I remember correctly.
 
Toponium is a hadron which is the bound state of a valance top quark and a valance antitop quark. Oversimplified presentations often state that top quarks don't form hadrons, because they decay to bottom quarks extremely rapidly after they are created, leaving no time to form a hadron. And, the vast majority of the time, this is true. But, the lifetime of a top quark is only an average lifetime. Sometimes it decays faster and sometimes it decays slower. In the highly improbable case that...
I'm following this paper by Kitaev on SL(2,R) representations and I'm having a problem in the normalization of the continuous eigenfunctions (eqs. (67)-(70)), which satisfy \langle f_s | f_{s'} \rangle = \int_{0}^{1} \frac{2}{(1-u)^2} f_s(u)^* f_{s'}(u) \, du. \tag{67} The singular contribution of the integral arises at the endpoint u=1 of the integral, and in the limit u \to 1, the function f_s(u) takes on the form f_s(u) \approx a_s (1-u)^{1/2 + i s} + a_s^* (1-u)^{1/2 - i s}. \tag{70}...
