NLO electroweak contributions to gluino pair production at hadron colliders

Abstract

We calculate the full $\mathcal{O}({\alpha }_s^2\alpha )$ corrections to the process of gluino pair production at hadron colliders in the framework of the real MSSM. We show that these contributions can be neglected at the LHC performing a scan over a wide region of the parameter space. The impact of these corrections in the parameter range investigated at the Tevatron is small.
