Selected pheno studies

Amongst many others OpenLoops has successfully been applied in the following precision studies for the LHC and ILC. They include parton-level NLO (QCD and EW) and NNLO calculations as well as simulations based on NLO+PS matching (S-MC@NLO) and multi-jet merging at NLO (MEPS@NLO) or for loop-induced processes (MLM@Loop2).
