We study a phenomenological ansatz for merging next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) calculations with Monte Carlo event generators. We reweight them to match bin-integrated NNLO differential distributions. To test this procedure, we study…

We study the phenomenological impact of a recently suggested formalism for the combination of threshold and a so-called threshold-improved transverse momentum resummation, by using it to improve the fixed-order results. This formalism…
