| contents | We study the use of cell resampling to reduce the fraction of negatively weighted Monte Carlo events in a generated sample typical of that used in experimental analyses. To this end, we apply the Cell Resampler to a set of $pp \rightarrow γγ+ \mathrm{jets}$ shower-merged NLO matched events, describing the diphoton background to Higgs boson production, generated using the FxFx and MEPS@NLO merging procedures and showered using the Pythia and Sherpa parton shower algorithms. We discuss the impact on various kinematic distributions. |
