Next-to-Leading Order Gluonic Three Jet Production at Hadron Colliders

Abstract

We report the results of a next-to-leading order event generator of purely gluonic jet production. This calculation is the first step in the construction of a full next-to-leading order calculation of three jet production at hadron colliders. Several jet-algorithms commonly used in experiments are implemented and their numerical stability is investigated.
