Matching the Nagy-Soper parton shower at next-to-leading order
read the original abstract
We present an MC@NLO-like matching of next-to-leading order QCD calculations with the Nagy-Soper parton shower. An implementation of the algorithm within the HELAC-DIPOLES Monte Carlo generator is used to address the uncertainties and ambiguities of the matching scheme. First results obtained using the Nagy-Soper parton shower implementation in DEDUCTOR in conjunction with the HELAC-NLO framework are given for the pp -> top anti-top j + X process at the LHC with sqrt(s)=8 TeV. Effects of resummation are discussed for various observables.

Complete NLO corrections to off-shell $\boldsymbol{t\bar{t}}$ production in the $\boldsymbol{\ell+j}$ decay channel
Complete NLO QCD plus EW corrections are calculated for off-shell ttbar production in the lepton-plus-jets channel, including all doubly, singly and non-resonant diagrams with their interferences.

Inclusive and differential measurements of the $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}\gamma$ cross section and the $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}\gamma$ / $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ cross section ratio in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV
CMS reports fiducial and differential ttγ cross sections plus ttγ/tt ratios at 13 TeV that agree with Standard Model expectations within uncertainties.
