Description
Matching fixed order calculations with parton showers enables us to predict jet observables over a wide kinematic range, combining the precision of the fixed order cross section at hand with the parton shower's abilty to resum logarithms in regions where a fixed order cross section would loose its predictive power.
In this lightning talk I would introduce the basic building blocks of the Deductor parton shower, and how the matching is done in it, working at the amplitude level.
