Description
We will give an overview about the current state of the calculation of di-boson
production. For precision measurements at the LHC both NNLO QCD and NLO EW
corrections are important. The Di-boson production processes give access to
triple gauge couplings and possible modifications in the form of anomalous
couplings (AC). We will present a study on WZ production with AC at approximate
NNLO QCD using the LoopSim method in combination with the Monte Carlo program
VBFNLO. Higher order corrections to WZ production are dominated by additional
hard jet radiation. We will discuss the use of a dynamical veto based on ratios
of transverse energies to suppress those without introducing problematic logs
like a fixed $p_T$ jet veto.
