Contribution
It provides a comprehensive comparison of LHC measurements with NLO pQCD predictions and introduces validation of novel Monte Carlo techniques.
Findings
Measurements agree with NLO pQCD within uncertainties
Validated new Monte Carlo simulation methods
Extended understanding of V+jets and ttbar+jets processes
Abstract
The LHC experiments ATLAS and CMS have measured V+jets and ttbar+jets final states over a large energy range in data collected between 2010 and 2012 at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV and sqrt(s) = 8 TeV. The results have been compared to pQCD calculations at NLO and have been used to validate novel Monte Carlo techniques.
