Drell-Yan lepton pair production at NNLO QCD with parton showers
Stefan Hoeche🇺🇸 · Ye Li🇺🇸 · Stefan Prestel🇩🇪
Abstract
We present a simple approach to combine NNLO QCD calculations and parton showers, based on the UNLOPS technique. We apply the method to the computation of Drell-Yan lepton-pair production at the Large Hadron Collider. We comment on possible improvements and intrinsic uncertainties.
