abstract
We derive an improved prescription for the merging of matrix elements with parton showers, extending the CKKW approach. A flavour-dependent phase space separation criterion is proposed. We show that this new method preserves the logarithmic accuracy of the shower, and that the original proposal can be derived from it. One of the main requirements for the method is a truncated shower algorithm. We outline the corresponding Monte Carlo procedures and apply the new prescription to QCD jet production in e+e- collisions and Drell-Yan lepton pair production. Explicit colour information from matrix elements obtained through colour sampling is incorporated in the merging and the influence of different prescriptions to assign colours in the large N_C limit is studied. We assess the systematic uncertainties of the new method.

Simultaneous measurements of b-jet tagging and c-jet mistagging efficiency scale factors for the ATLAS GN2 tagger achieve precisions below 2% and 5% respectively using 56 fb⁻¹ of 13.6 TeV ttbar data.

The GN2 b-jet tagger is calibrated in 56 fb⁻¹ of 13.6 TeV pp data using dileptonic tt̄ events, yielding data-to-simulation scale factors of 0.9–1.3 with ~1% uncertainty in the best bins.

No excess observed in search for vector-like T-quarks in Ht channel; 95% CL mass limits set at 1.40 TeV (SU(2) singlet), 1.56 TeV (doublet), and 1.66 TeV (100% BR to Ht).
