摘要:We report on the calculation of the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the production of
W-boson pairs in association with a hard jet at hadron colliders, which is an important source
of background for Higgs and new-physics searches. If a veto against the emission of a second
hard jet is applied, the corrections stabilize the leading-order prediction for the cross section
considerably.
