Abstract

In this talk we discuss recent progress concerning precise predictions for the LHC. We give a status report of an application of the GOLEM method to deal with multi-leg one-loop amplitudes, namely the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the process pp to V V + jet, where V is a weak boson W,Z.
