The LO CTEQ5L parton distributions were calculated using the Mathematica package CTEQ5L of the CTEQ group, http://www.phys.psu.edu/cteq/Mathematica, and independently using the CTEQ5 distributions from the Durham parton distribution generator at http://durpdg.dur.ac.uk/hepdata/pdf3.html. The parameters for the LO αs(Q2) are given in the introductory notes in the CTEQ5L Fortran program on the CTEQ web site, http://www.phys.psu.edu/cteq/. EPCFFB 1434-6044 10.1007/s100529900196
