NLO Higgs boson production plus one and two jets using the POWHEG BOX, MadGraph4 and MCFM


Campbell, John M; Ellis, R Keith; Frederix, Rikkert; Nason, Paolo; Oleari, Carlo; Williams, Ciaran (2012). NLO Higgs boson production plus one and two jets using the POWHEG BOX, MadGraph4 and MCFM. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2012(7):1-27.

Abstract

We present a next-to-leading order calculation of Higgs boson production plus one and two jets via gluon fusion interfaced to shower Monte Carlo programs, implemented according to the POWHEG method. For this implementation we have used a new interface of the POWHEG BOX with MadGraph4, that generates the codes for generic Born and real processes automatically. The virtual corrections have been taken from the MCFM code. We carry out a simple phenomenological study of our generators, comparing them among each other and with fixed next-to-leading order results.
