Abstract
We present a complete calculation of weak boson fusion production of colorless supersymmetric particles at the LHC, using the new matrix element generator susy-madgraph . The cross sections are small, generally at the attobarn level, with a few notable exceptions which might provide additional supersymmetric parameter measurements. We discuss in detail how to consistently define supersymmetric weak couplings to preserve unitarity of weak gauge boson scattering amplitudes to fermions, and derive sum rules for weak supersymmetric couplings.
