In this talk we present a fully differential calculation of NLO QCD factorizable corrections to squark-squark production and direct decay into the lightest neutralino pp → q q → q χ0 1 q χ0 1 (+X) in the narrow-width-approximation.For various benchmark scenarios, an analysis of the phenomenological impact on the experimental signature 2 j + E T (+X) at the LHC is presented.We compare resulting differential distributions and predictions for cutand-count searches with correspondent results in leading-order approximation rescaled by a flat K-factor.
