Spin polarisation of ttyy production at NLO+PS with GoSam interfaced to MadGraph5_aMC@NLO
Author
Summary, in English
We present an interface between the multipurpose Monte Carlo tool MadGraph5_aMC@NLO and the automated amplitude generator GoSam. As a first application of this novel framework, we compute the NLO corrections to (Formula presented.) (Formula presented.) and (Formula presented.) (Formula presented.) matched to a parton shower. In the phenomenological analyses of these processes, we focus our attention on observables which are sensitive to the polarisation of the top quarks.
