SciPost Physics, 16(5), Article 130. https://doi.org/10.21468/scipostphys.16.5.130

We provide an overview of the status of Monte-Carlo event generators for high-energy particle physics. Guided by the experimental needs and requirements, we highlight areas of active development, and opportunities for future improvements. Particular...

The European Physical Journal C, 79(10), Article 845. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-019-7351-x

The extension of interpolation-grid frameworks for perturbative QCD calculations at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) is presented for deep inelastic scattering (DIS) processes. A fast and flexible evaluation of higher-order predictions for any a...

Precise predictions for V+jets dark matter backgrounds (2017)
Journal Article
Lindert, J., Pozzorini, S., Boughezal, R., Campbell, J., Denner, A., Dittmaier, S., …Williams, C. (2017). Precise predictions for V+jets dark matter backgrounds. The European Physical Journal C, 77(12), Article 829. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-017-5389-1

High-energy jets recoiling against missing transverse energy (MET) are powerful probes of dark matter at the LHC. Searches based on large MET signatures require a precise control of the Z(νν¯)+Z(νν¯)+ jet background in the signal region. This can be...
