We present a study of $W+$multijet events that compares the kinematics of the observed events with expectations from direct QCD $W+$jet production and from production and decay of top quark pairs. The data were collected in the 1992-93 run…
We compute the production cross section of a top-antitop pair in association with a jet at hadron colliders at next-to-leading order accuracy matched with parton shower algorithms to make predictions at the hadron level. The parton shower…
Events containing hadronically decaying heavy particles with large momentum, leading to so-called merged jets, are expected to play a significant role in both searches for new physics and measurements of Standard Model processes at the CERN…
Measurements of jet activity in top-quark pair events produced in proton--proton collisions are presented, using 3.2 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron…
We present differential cross sections for the production of top-quark pairs in conjunction with up to two jets, computed at next-to leading order in perturbative QCD and consistently merged with a parton shower in the Sherpa+OpenLoops…
The merging of matrix elements and parton showers is an established calculational tool for the description of multi-jet final states at hadron colliders. These methods have recently been promoted to next-to-leading order accuracy in the…
Measurements of the jet activity in $t\bar{t}$ events produced in proton--proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV are presented, using $20.3\,$fb$^{-1}$ of data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The events were…
We present heavy-flavor production in association with one jet in hadronic collisions matched to parton shower Monte Carlo predictions at next-to-leading order QCD with account of top-quark decays and spin correlations. We use the POWHEGBOX…
We propose a general approach for the description of multijet events in the framework of QCD event generators. We introduce a new algorithm to match parton showers and arbitrary matrix elements for the production of any number of jets via…
We study 3-jet event topologies in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 13 {\rm\ TeV}$ in a configuration, where one jet is present in the central pseudorapidity region ($|\eta| < 2.0$) while two other jets are…
We present a calculation of heavy-flavor production in hadronic collisions in association with one jet matched to parton shower Monte Carlo programs at next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. Top-quark decays are included and spin…
An azimuthal angle correlation between the two hardest jets is studied in the ttbar production process at the 14 TeV LHC. The event samples are generated by merging the tree level matrix elements for the ttbar plus up to 2 or 3 partons with…
QCD predictions for final states with multiple jets in hadron collisions make use of multi-jet merging methods, which allow one to combine consistently the contributions from hard scattering matrix elements with different parton…
I present an analysis of fully differential single-top-quark production plus jets at next-to-leading order. I describe the effects of jet definitions, top-quark mass, and higher orders on the shapes and normalizations of the kinematic…
We present an algorithm to combine multiple matrix elements at LO and NLO with a parton shower. We build on the unitarized merging paradigm. The inclusion of higher orders and multiplicities reduce the scale uncertainties for observables…
The difference between the structures of jets produced in heavy-ion and hadronic collisions can best be exhibited in the correlations between particles within those jets. We study the dihadron correlations in jets in the framework of parton…
The sources of $W + n$-jet events in hadron collisions are higher-order QCD processes, but also multiple-parton interactions. A subprocess producing a $W + k$-jet final state, followed by one producing $l$ jets in the same nucleon-nucleon…
We analyse the impact of matrix-element corrections to top decays in HERWIG on several observables related to the jet activity in t-tbar events at the Tevatron and at the LHC. In particular, we study the effects induced by the higher-order…
We compute the inclusive jet function for boosted heavy quarks to $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^3)$. The jet function is defined and calculated in the framework of boosted Heavy-Quark Effective Theory (bHQET). It describes the effect of radiation…
We observe that at the Large Hadron Collider, using forward + central detectors, it becomes possible for the first time to carry out calorimetric measurements of the transverse energy flow due to "minijets" accompanying production of two…
