We present a study of $W^+W^+jj$ and $W^-W^-jj$ production including leptonicdecays in hadron-hadron collisions. The full electroweak and QCD inducedcontributions and their interferences are calculated at leading order. We findthat, for inclusive cuts, the interference effects can be large if the jets areproduced with large transverse momentum where, however, the production rate issuppressed. We also discuss the vector-boson-fusion (VBF) cuts and show thevalidity of the VBF approximation. The NLO QCD corrections to the QCD-inducedchannels are also calculated. Compared to the previous calculation, we allowthe intermediate $W$ bosons to be off-shell. For on-shell $W$ production, weobtain an excellent agreement with previous results. Our code will be publiclyavailable as part of the parton level Monte Carlo program VBFNLO.

Next-to-leading order QCD corrections to $W^+W^+$ and $W^-W^-$ production in association with two jets
