### Next-to-leading order QCD corrections for W+W- pair production in association with two jets at hadron colliders

Abstract:

We compute the NLO QCD corrections to the pair production of W-bosons in association with two jets at the Tevatron and the LHC. This process is an important background to heavy Higgs-boson production in association with two jets, either in gluon or weak boson fusion. We consider leptonic decays of W-bosons and include all the spin correlations exactly. For natural choices of the renormalization scale, the NLO QCD corrections to pp(p̄)→W +W-jj are moderate but different for various values of t...
