As a long-standing problem, any hadron collider search for new physics depends on parton distribution functions, which cannot be predicted but are extracted experimentally. However, performing the extraction in the same kinematic region where physics beyond the standard model is expected to manifest causes the risk of absorbing the new physics effects into the parton distributions. In this book, the issue is addressed by extending the standard model by effective contributions from quark contact interactions describing new physics and extracting the parton distributions and standard model parameters simultaneously with setting limits on the contact interactions. In the process, the most precise single measurement of the strong coupling constant at the LHC is performed, to date. Furthermore, the book details the first investigation of the mass renormalization scale dependence of the top quark mass, highlighting the importance of a proper scale choice for obtaining robust predictions and improving the precision of experimental analyses. The initial chapters provide the reader with a succinct yet accessible introduction to the relevant theoretical and experimental topics. The presented investigations are at the edge of precision in the phenomenology of high-energy physics and serve to pave the road toward a global interpretation of LHC data. . 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5061 606 $aParticles (Nuclear physics) 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aParticles (Nuclear physics) 606 $aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory 606 $aParticle Physics 610 $aNuclear Physics 610 $aScience 615 0$aParticles (Nuclear physics) 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aParticles (Nuclear physics) 615 14$aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory. 615 24$aParticle Physics. 676 $a539.736 676 $a539.736 700 $aMäkelä$b Toni$01358329 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910725087203321 996 $aTowards Global Interpretation of LHC Data$93367514 997 $aUNINA
