New NLOPS predictions for $$\varvec{t \bar{t} +b}$$ tt¯+b -jet production at the LHC
Abstract Measurements of $$t \bar{t} H$$ tt¯H production in the $$H\rightarrow b \bar{b} $$ H→bb¯ channel depend in a critical way on the theoretical uncertainty associated with the irreducible $$t \bar{t} +b$$ tt¯+b -jet background. In this paper, analysing the various topologies that account for b...
