The idea is to perform a systematic study and comparison of the ttbar plus jets process, using the available codes, in particular
- ttbar+jet NLO (Dittmaier, Uwer, Weinzierl)
- MC@NLO
- POWHEG
- ALPGEN
- MADGRAPH
- PYTHIA
We plan to systematically compare the codes using relevant distributions, understand and learn from observed differences.
