Description
We consider electroweak Higgs Boson production in association of three jets at NLO QCD beyond strict VBF acceptance cuts. We investigate how accurate the VBF approximation is by a detailed comparison of the full and approximate calculations. We find that the rapidity gap between the tagging jets is guaranteeing a good approximation, while an invariant mass cut along is not sufficient.
