Description

As experimental precision continues to improve, it becomes increasingly important for the theory community to incorporate electroweak corrections alongside higher-order QCD effects in our predictions. In this talk, I will introduce the QED-MC@NLO method, which matches a QED parton shower with an NLO electroweak calculation. I will discuss some implementation details and present results from important use cases. Additionally, I will demonstrate how this method extends to combined QCD+EW NLO calculations, matched to an interleaved parton shower.
