NLO QCD calculations with HELAC-NLO
arXiv:1007.4918 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysbps.2010.08.045
Abstract
Achieving a precise description of multi-parton final states is crucial for many analyses at LHC. In this contribution we review the main features of the HELAC-NLO system for NLO QCD calculations. As a case study, NLO QCD corrections for tt + 2 jet production at LHC are illustrated and discussed.
