Description

Double parton scatterings (DPS) provide vital information on the parton-parton correlations and parton distributions in a hadron. DPS also constitutes as a background to new physics searches. The measurement of DPS in Vector Boson (V) + jets processes is important because of clean experimental signature and large production cross-section. The available DPS measurements, with V + jets, are dominated by large contamination from V + jets processes produced with single parton scatterings (SPS). In this talk, the importance of jet substructure, in controling SPS backgrounds for V + jets DPS processes, will be discussed.
