Abstract: (arXiv)

We report on a search for the pair production of scalar leptoquarks,

LQ

, using 191 pb

^{-1}

of proton-antiproton collision data recorded by the CDF experiment during Run II of the Tevatron. The leptoquarks are sought via their decay into a neutrino and quark yielding missing transverse energy and several jets of large transverse energy. No evidence for leptoquark production is observed, and limits are set on

\sigma(p\bar p\to LQ\bar{LQ} X \to \nu\bar\nu q\bar q X)

. Using a next-to-leading order theoretical prediction of the cross section for scalar leptoquark production, we exclude first-generation leptoquarks in the mass interval 78 to 117 GeV

/c^2

at the 95% confidence level for BR(

LQ\to \nu q)=100%

.
