Simulating W/Z+ jets production at the Fermilab Tevatron

Year: 2004

Type: article

Abstract: The merging procedure of tree-level matrix elements and the subsequent parton shower as implemented in the new event generator SHERPA will be validated for the example of $W/Z+\mathrm{j}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{t}\mathrm{s}$ production at the Tevatron. Comparisons with results obtained from other approaches and programs and with experimental results clearly show that the merging procedure yields relevant and correct results at both the hadron and parton levels.
