qq-production at NLO merged with parton-shower — •Christian Hangst¹, Michael Krämer², Margarete Mühlleitner¹, Eva Popenda³, and Michael Spira³ — ¹KIT - Institut für Theoretische Physik — ²RWTH Aachen University - Institut für Theoretische Teilchenphysik und Kosmologie — ³Paul Scherrer Institut - Theory Group LTP

Precise predictions for the production of SUSY-particles at the LHC require the combination of fixed-order NLO-calculations and parton-showers. This so-called merging can be achieved via the POWHEG-method. I present some results obtained with this method for qq-production, based on the implementation of this process in the program-package POWHEG-BOX.
