W+ Multiple Jets at the LHC with High Energy Jets

Andersen, J.R.; Hapola, T.; Smillie, J.M.

Abstract

We study the production of a W boson in association with n hard QCD jets (for n ≥ 2), with a particular emphasis on results relevant for the Large Hadron Collider (7 TeV and 8 TeV). We present predictions for this process from High Energy Jets, a framework for all-order resummation of the dominant contributions from wide-angle QCD emissions. We first compare predictions against recent ATLAS data and then shift focus to observables and regions of phase space where effects beyond NLO are expected to be large.
