Samenvatting	The Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) profile is a widely-adopted density profile for dark matter halos emerging from cosmological simulations. It provides a simple parametric description of how dark matter density varies with distance from the halo center, essential for modeling galaxy cluster mass distributions, weak lensing, and dark matter annihilation signals.	The Matrix Element Method (MEM) is a powerful analysis technique that leverages quantum field theory amplitudes to extract maximum physics information from individual events. By comparing observed detector signatures to predictions from matrix elements, MEM provides unbiased, model-independent measurements with excellent theoretical precision and sensitivity to new physics.	Parton Distribution Function (PDF) fitting is the process of determining the probability distributions of quarks and gluons inside hadrons using high-energy collision data. PDFs are fundamental inputs to all hadron collider phenomenology, essential for predicting cross-sections, designing triggers, and interpreting new physics searches at the Large Hadron Collider.
