Abstract
A new QCD analysis of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) data is presented. Al l available neutrino and antineutrino cross sections are reanalyzed and inc luded in the fit, along with charged-lepton DIS and Drell-Yan data. A massi ve factorization scheme is used to describe the charm component of the stru cture functions. Next-to-leading-order parton distribution functions are pr ovided. In particular, the strange-sea density is determined with a higher accuracy with respect to other global fits.
