Journal ArticleDOI
A study of multi-jet production in association with an electroweak vector boson
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the production of a single $Z$ or $W$ boson in association with jets at the LHC and compute corresponding cross sections by matching NLO QCD predictions with the Herwig++ and Pythia8 parton showers, and by merging all of the underlying matrix elements with up to two light partons at the Born level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Four-lepton production at hadron colliders: aMC@NLO predictions with theoretical uncertainties
Rikkert Frederix,Stefano Frixione,Stefano Frixione,Valentin Hirschi,Fabio Maltoni,Roberto Pittau,Paolo Torrielli +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used aMC@NLO to study the production of four charged leptons at the LHC, performing parton showers with both HERWIG and Pythia6.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a framework based on an effective field theory approach is introduced to perform characterisation studies of the boson recently discovered at the LHC, for all the relevant channels and in a consistent, systematic and accurate way.
Journal ArticleDOI
Off-shell single-top production at NLO matched to parton showers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the hadroproduction of a $Wb$ pair in association with a light jet, focusing on the dominant $t$-channel contribution and including exactly at the matrix-element level all non-resonant and off-shell effects induced by the finite top-quark width.
Journal ArticleDOI
Matching NLO QCD computations with PYTHIA using MC@NLO
TL;DR: In this article, the matching between a next-to-leading order computation in QCD and the PYTHIA parton shower Monte Carlo, according to the MC@NLO formalism, is presented.
