TeVJet: A general framework for the calculation of jet observables in NLO QCD

Abstract: In this paper we present the parton level Monte Carlo program TeVJet, a direct implementation of the dipole subtraction method for calculating jet cross sections in NLO QCD. It has been written so as to allow the inclusion of new processes in as straightforward a way as possible. The user must provide the usual ingredients for an NLO calculation and from these the process-independent parts required to make the phase space integrals finite in 4 dimensions are automatically generated. These integrals are then performed using Monte Carlo techniques. We present the results for a few example processes.
