MCFM for the Tevatron and the LHC
Abstract
A summary is given of the current status of the next-to-leading order (NLO) parton-level integrator MCFM. Some details are given about the Higgs + 2-jet process and the production and decay of tt¯, both of which have recently been added to the code. Using MCFM, comparisons between the Tevatron running at √{s}=2 TeV and the LHC running at √{s}=7 TeV are made for standard model process including the production of Higgs bosons. The case for running the Tevatron until 16fb are accumulated by both detectors is sketched.
