Description
The MC@NLO method as implemented in the Sherpa MC generator is
presented using the production of W-bosons in conjunction with up to
three jets as an example. Corresponding results computed at next-to
leading order in QCD and including parton shower corrections are
compared to recent experimental data from the Large Hadron Collider.
