Figure 3: Distributions of the transverse momentum of the two har<strong>de</strong>st jets <strong>and</strong> angular distributions in the<br />

process pp → e + µ + νe νµ + 2 jets at leading <strong>and</strong> next-to-leading or<strong>de</strong>r in perturbative <strong>QCD</strong> for inclusive two-jet<br />

events. The b<strong>and</strong>s show renormalisation <strong>and</strong> factorisation scale uncertainty, for 50 GeV ≤ µ ≤ 400 GeV. Solid<br />

lines show leading <strong>and</strong> next-to-leading or<strong>de</strong>r predictions for µ = 150 GeV.<br />

Acknowledgments<br />

I wish to thank the organisers of the <strong>Moriond</strong> <strong>QCD</strong> session for providing both financial support<br />

<strong>and</strong> a fantastic conference. This write-up is based on work done in collaboratoration with Kirill<br />

Melnikov, Raoul Röntsch <strong>and</strong> Giulia Z<strong>and</strong>erighi <strong>and</strong> closely follows Ref. 1 , <strong>and</strong> the research is<br />

supported by the British Science <strong>and</strong> Technology Facilities Council.<br />
