In the context of the SM and NLO multi-leg I'm interested in the comparison of different tools for the production of vector bosons plus jets. I'm participating to the analysis of this signature in CMS Concerning the MC tools session, I'm interested in aspects concerning the tuning, and would like to work on automatic tuning tools |

I apply for session I and hence my main focus is on topics 1) and 2) see below: 1) Calculation of NLO QCD corrections to generic SUSY cascade decays. Combination of the NLO production and decay process in a NLO parton-level Monte Carlo program. 2) Major improvements and extensions of Higgs and SUSY decay programs as SDECAY, SUSY-HIT and HDECAY. Intense discussions with experimentalists about their wishlists are foreseen. Since I apply for session I there is no New Physics group. But I will particate from remote in the BSM discussion in session II and work on this 3) EWP constraints on composite Higgs models. Effects of composite tops on single Higgs and Higgs pair production. 4) Radion production in gluon gluon fusion. |

* Higgs Production from gluon fusion and jet veto effects. Uncertainties in the 0, 1, ... jet bins. Analogs for W/Z + jets as well. * I am interested in building on the interface of NLO Multi-leg computations for hard matrix elements of Higgs and W/Z production, with SCET computations for the subsequent evolution (analytically via jet and soft functions, or alternatively in an improved beyond LL parton shower framework). |
