NLO QCD Predictions for Wbb Production in Association with Jets at the LHC — Felix Anger, Fernando Febres Cordero, Harald Ita, and •Vasily Sotnikov — Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany

We present NLO QCD predictions for Wbb production in association with up to three light jets at the LHC. We compute in the four-flavor scheme with a non-vanishing bottom-quark mass. The matrix elements are obtained with a new version of the BlackHat library, which is upgraded to handle massive particles.
