We present results from a search for WZ production with subsequent decay to l nu l'-bar l' (l and l'=electron or muon) using 0.30 fb^(-1) of data collected by the DO experiment between 2002 and 2004 at the Tevatron. Three events with WZ…

At NLO in QCD, the $tWZ$ production process interferes with resonant LO processes, $t\bar{t}Z$ and $t\bar{t}$, and a method to meaningfully disentangle these overlapping processes needs to be employed. I discuss the diagram-removal…
Jet vetoes play an important role in many analyses at the LHC. Traditionally, jet vetoes have been imposed using a restriction on the transverse momentum $p_{Tj}$ of jets. Alternatively, one can also consider jet observables for which…
We illustrate one-loop weak corrections to three-jet production in $e^+e^-$ at $\sqrt{s}=M_Z$, to the production of a $Z$ or $\gamma$ in association with a hard jet at hadron colliders and to the production cross section of two $b$-jets at…
