t t ¯ b b ¯ $$ t\overline{t}b\overline{b} $$ at the LHC: on the size of corrections and b-jet definitions

Abstract We report on the calculation of the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the production of a t t ¯ $$ t\overline{t} $$ pair in association with two heavy-flavour jets. We concentrate on the di-lepton t t ¯ $$ t\overline{t} $$ decay channel at the LHC with s $$ \sqrt{s} $$ = 13 TeV. The...
