MoCaNLO: a Monte Carlo integrator for NLO calculations
Abstract
We present the Monte Carlo integration code MoCaNLO, which computes cross sections and distributions for processes at high-energy colliders like the LHC at leading and next-to-leading order (NLO) in the strong and electroweak couplings. It relies on the Recola package for the calculation of matrix elements and uses Catani-Seymour dipole subtraction for the treatment of infrared singularities. It has been used for several cutting-edge calculations of NLO QCD and electroweak corrections over the last years, such as NLO QCD corrections to off-shell top-antitop-quark production in association with a pair of bottom quarks and NLO electroweak corrections to vector-boson scattering processes.
