Vbfnlo is a flexible parton level Monte Carlo program for the simulation of vector boson fusion (VBF), double and triple vector boson (plus jet) production as well as QCD-induced single and double vector boson production plus two jets in hadronic collisions at next-to-leading order (NLO) in the strong coupling constant. Furthermore, Higgs boson plus two jet production via gluon fusion at the one-loop level is included. This note briefly describes the main additional features and processes that have been added in the new release -Vbfnlo Version 2.7.0.At NLO QCD several new processes are available. These are W ± γ and HH production in VBF, the QCD-induced single and double vector boson plus two jets processes W ± jj, W ± Zjj, W ± γjj, same-sign W ± W ± jj, and the Higgs-strahlung process W ± H (plus jet) production. Anomalous couplings are now available for all VBF, diboson and triboson (plus jet) processes including the new VBF W ± γjj implementation, as well as in the Higgs-strahlung (plus jet) process.Semi-leptonic decay modes are supported for the following diboson, triboson and VBF processes: V V , V V V , V V γ production and V V production via VBF, where V denotes a massive gauge boson, i.e. W ± or Z. Additionally, the VBF-Higgs production process with decay into W W or ZZ supports semi-leptonic decays of the gauge bosons. All these semi-leptonic processes contain the possibility to include anomalous gauge boson couplings.
