Conclusions and Outlook Processes in next-to-leading order SUSY QCD: Stop cross sections at hadron colliders Neutralino/Chargino cross sections at hadron colliders Results:? QCD corrections to stop cross sections between % and +5%? QCD corrections to neutralino/chargino cross sections around +3% [up to interference eects]? Scale dependence small in N Conclusions & Outlook:? N stop cross sections only mildly dependent on mixing angle and internal masses? Corrections to neutralino/chargino cross section non-negligiable and dependent on scenario =) N analyses at upgraded Tevatron and LHC
