Description

The High Energy Jets (HEJ) framework provides an all-order, all-multiplicity description of jet production. It is built upon approximations to the hard-scattering matrix element which are derived from the High Energy limit, and as such contains the leading-logarithmic corrections in large invariant mass between partons. These corrections are especially important in regions where there is a large rapidity gap between partons, as is usually required in a Higgs plus jets analysis. In this talk, we will describe the HEJ framework, show and discuss results from multi-jet and W+jet data analyses, and discuss the latest comparisons of different Monte Carlo predictions for Higgs plus jets analyses.
