Combining squark production and decay at NLO QCD — Wolfgang Hollik, •Jonas Lindert, and Davide Pagani — Max-Planck-Institut für Physik, München, Germany

In this talk I discuss new precision calculations for combined squark production and decay in next-to-leading order QCD at the LHC. On the one hand, an analysis of the signature 2j+_T(+X) via squark–squark production and direct decays into the lightest neutralino is presented. Resulting differential distributions are compared with leading-order approximations rescaled by a flat K-factor and a possible impact on cut-and-count searches for supersymmetry at the LHC is examined. On the other hand, the signature 2j+2l+_T(+X) from squark–squark production and decay into a lightest and a second lightest neutralino, with a subsequent EW decay chain via an on-shell slepton, is investigated. The impact of NLO corrections on resulting invariant mass distributions is highlighted. Such distributions can be important for future determination of SUSY parameters.
