Description

The discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 by ATLAS and CMS Collaborations opens a new era to particle physics, making processes involving Higgs production interesting and essential in many ways. For the first time, we have presented complete results at NLO prediction for electroweak Higgs production merged with dipole shower by unitarized merging algorithm framework in Herwig 7 and compared to NLO plus parton shower (NLOPS) matched calculations. This talk is based on the paper arXiv:2109.03730.
