Drell-Yan lepton pair production at NNLO QCD with parton showers

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2015-04-22 v1

Abstract

We present a simple approach to combine NNLO QCD calculations and parton showers, based on the UNLOPS technique. We apply the method to the computation of Drell-Yan lepton-pair production at the Large Hadron Collider. We comment on possible improvements and intrinsic uncertainties.
