The paper discusses the merging of Monte Carlo (MC) predictions with next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections for exclusive jet production processes. The authors propose a merging procedure that can be easily incorporated into existing MC@NLO implementations, using the automated aMC@NLO framework. The method addresses the challenge of predicting observables that are exclusive in different light-jet multiplicities by defining a suitable merging procedure. The paper outlines the merging procedure, including technical details such as the choice of veto scales in showers and the use of Sudakov reweighting. The authors demonstrate the method by considering the production of a Standard Model Higgs, $e^+ \nu_e$ pairs, and $t \bar{t}$ pairs at the 8 TeV LHC, focusing on observables exclusive in up to one or two jets at the NLO level. The merging procedure ensures that the MC@NLO predictions are consistent with NLO accuracy and avoids double-counting issues.The paper discusses the merging of Monte Carlo (MC) predictions with next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections for exclusive jet production processes.
