| * Simon will discuss possible studies to be done as a Les Houches project | * Simon will discuss possible studies to be done as a Les Houches project | ||
| - | Aims: | + | Proposed study: |
| - | * review available MC tools | + | * assess off-shell and interference effects at LO (without PS) for different value of \Delta\eta_jj and m_jj cut |
| - | * discuss QCD and EW NLO corrections | + | * define "signal" (VBS topology) vs "background" (QCD-like topology) based on the results of the above study |
| - | * define signal and background processes both in the signal and control regions, where VBS cuts are relaxed and interference effects become large | + | * from the above also assess to which precision VBS-like approximation for NLO calculation is reliable (the same effects are those neglected in this approximation) |
| - | * ... | + | * study if by taking the ratio of xsec for "signal" to "background" regions some theory uncertainties on QCD VVjj production cancel out |
| + | * [(maybe) check the effect of VBS WW as background to H->WW] | ||
| + | Processes to be studied: | ||
| + | * pp -> jj W⁺Z: | ||
| + | 48 processes and 976 diagrams | ||
| + | * pp -> jj W⁺W⁻: | ||
| + | 76 processes and 1432 diagrams | ||
| + | |||
| + | So pp -> jj W⁺Z will be studied first and if enough time, pp -> jj W⁺W⁻ afterwards. | ||
| + | --> pp -> jj \mu⁺ \mu⁻ e⁺ \nu_e | ||
| + | with p = u u~ d d~ c c~ s s~ | ||
| + | with j = u u~ d d~ c c~ s s~ | ||

| + | The convener of the group is Kenneth. | ||
| + | Unless someone wants to be the convener. | ||
| + | Any objections? | ||
| + | |||
| + | Definition of the cuts (apart from \Delta\eta_jj and m_jj)? | ||
| + | |||
| + | Input parameters? | ||
