Weak Bosons and Jets at the LHC

Abstract

In this talk, I outline theoretical predictions for weak boson pair production in association with two jets at the LHC. I will discuss the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the processes $pp\to W^{+}{W}^{+}jj$ and $pp\to W^{+}{W}^{-}jj$, and the interfacing of $pp\to W^{+}{W}^{+}jj$ with a parton shower using the {\tt POWHEG BOX} framework.
