W+jets matrix elements and the dipole cascade

Lavesson, Nils LU and Lönnblad, Leif LU orcid (2005) In Journal of High Energy Physics 7(54).
Abstract
We extend the algorithm for matching fixed-order tree-level matrix element generators with the Dipole Cascade Model in Ariadne to apply to processes with incoming hadrons. We test the algoritm on for the process W+n jets at the Tevatron, and find that the results are fairly insensitive to the cutoff used to regularize the soft and collinear divergencies in the tree-level matrix elements. We also investigate a few observables to check the sensitivity to the matrix element correction.
