Precise predictions for V + 2 jet backgrounds in searches for invisible Higgs decays

Abstract We present next-to-leading order QCD and electroweak (EW) theory predictions for V + 2 jet production, with V = Z, W ± , considering both the QCD and EW production modes and their interference. We focus on phase-space regions where V + 2 jet production is dominated by vector-boson fusion, a...
