Description
The process W^+W^- + dijet is of great importance at the LHC, not only in itself but also as a primary background to moderately heavy Higgs production in association with two jets. I present next-to-leading order results for this process calculated recently using unitarity methods. By looking at specific kinematic distributions, I will show how the reduced theoretical uncertainty can improve the reliability of discriminating the Higgs signal over this background.
