Next-to-leading order QCD corrections to slepton pair production via vector-boson fusion

Slepton pairs can be produced in vector-boson fusion processes at hadron colliders. The next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the electroweak production cross section for pp→ℓ˜+ℓ˜−+2 jets at order αsα4 have been calculated and implemented in an NLO parton-level Monte Carlo program. Numerical results are presented for the CERN large hadron collider.
