Description

We complete the calculation of the wino-nucleon scattering cross section up to the next-to-leading order in α_s. As a result, the uncertainties coming from the perturbative QCD are significantly reduced to be smaller than those from the nucleon matrix elements. The resultant scattering cross section is found to be larger than the leading-order one by about 70%, which is well above the neutrino background.
