Among these, the CPC paper, the manual and the newest release note should always be cited while using VBFNLO. Additionally, the original literature on which the specific process is based on should be cited as well. Relevant publications are printed in the header of the program output. A list of papers concerning parts of VBFNLO is collected below. PhD and diploma/master theses concerning parts of VBFNLO can be found here.
