Data driving the top quark forward--backward asymmetry with a lepton-based handle
Adam Falkowski, Michelangelo L. Mangano, Adam Martin +2
We propose that, within the standard model, the correlation between the forward--backward asymmetry and the corresponding lepton-based asymmetry -- a…
QCD Coherence and the Top Quark Asymmetry
Peter Z. Skands, Bryan R. Webber, Jan Winter
Coherent QCD radiation in the hadroproduction of top quark pairs leads to a forward--backward asymmetry that grows more negative with increasing transverse momentum of the pair. Th…
Systematic improvement of QCD parton showers
Jan Winter, Stefan Hoeche, Hendrik Hoeth +5
In this contribution, we will give a brief overview of the progress that has been achieved in the field of combining matrix elements and parton showers. We exemplify this by focusi…
The SM and NLO Multileg and SM MC Working Groups: Summary Report
J. Alcaraz Maestre, S. Alioli, J. R. Andersen +79
The 2011 Les Houches workshop was the first to confront LHC data. In the two years since the previous workshop there have been significant advances in both soft and hard QCD, parti…
