Abstract

We present a full off-shell NLO QCD calculation of pp \rightarrow e^+ \nu_e b \mu^- \bar{\nu}_\mu \bar{b} b \bar{b} + Xpp→e+νebμ−ν‾μb‾bb‾+X. Results are obtained using the Helac-Nlo Monte Carlo framework. We discuss a comparison to previous results and to experimental measurements. We also investigate the contribution of the initial states involving bb-quarks and we introduce two bb-jet tagging schemes.
