Uncertainties in MEPS@NLO calculations of h+jets (2014)
Journal Article
Höche, S., Krauss, F., & Schönherr, M. (2014). Uncertainties in MEPS@NLO calculations of h+jets. Physical Review D, 90(1), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.90.014012

Uncertainties in the simulation of Higgs boson production with up to two jets at next-to-leading-order accuracy are investigated. Traditional uncertainty estimates based on scale variations are extended employing different functional forms for the ce... Read More about Uncertainties in MEPS@NLO calculations of h+jets.

Measuring collinear W emissions inside jets (2014)
Journal Article
Krauss, F., Petrov, P., Schönherr, M., & Spannowsky, M. (2014). Measuring collinear W emissions inside jets. Physical Review D, 89(11), Article 114006. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.89.114006

Single and multiple emission of electroweak gauge bosons and in particular of W bosons is discussed in the parton shower language. Algorithms and observables for the reconstruction of both leptonically and hadronically decaying W bosons inside light... Read More about Measuring collinear W emissions inside jets.

Precise Higgs-background predictions: merging NLO QCD and squared quark-loop corrections to four-lepton + 0,1 jet production (2014)
Journal Article
Cascioli, F., Höche, S., Krauss, F., Maierhöfer, P., Pozzorini, S., & Siegert, F. (2014). Precise Higgs-background predictions: merging NLO QCD and squared quark-loop corrections to four-lepton + 0,1 jet production. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2014(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep01%282014%29046

We present precise predictions for four-lepton plus jets production at the LHC obtained within the fully automated Sherpa + OpenLoops framework. Off-shell intermediate vector bosons and related interferences are consistently included using the comple...
