Summary

We present the calculation of NLO QCD corrections matched to PS,
within the PowHeg method combined with MiNLO,
to W gamma production at LHC. We address both the direct
as well as the photon fragmentation contribution. We discuss also a
critical comparison of the new predictions with available NLO
calculations and LHC data.
