NLO QCD predictions for tt¯bb¯¯ production in association with a light jet at the LHC

Theoretical predictions for tt¯bb¯¯ production are of crucial importance for tt¯ H measurements in the H → b b¯¯ channel at the LHC. To address the large uncertainties associated with the modelling of extra QCD radiation in tt¯ bb¯¯ events, in this paper we present a calculation of pp → tt¯ bb¯¯ j a...
