Single-top-quark production at hadron colliders
Single-top-quark production probes the charged-current weak interaction of the top quark, and provides a direct measurement of the CKM matrix element Vtb. We perform two independent analyses to quantify the accuracy with which the W -gluon fusion (gq → tb̄q) and qq̄ → tb̄ signals can be extracted from the backgrounds at both the Tevatron and the LHC. Although perturbation theory breaks down at low...
متن کاملSingle Top Quark Production via FCNC Couplings at Hadron Colliders
We calculate single top–quark production at hadron colliders via the chromo–magnetic flavor–changing neutral current couplings t̄cg and t̄ug. We find that the strength for the anomalous t̄cg (t̄ug) coupling may be probed to κc/Λ = 0.092 TeV −1 (κu/Λ = 0.026 TeV ) at the Tevatron with 2 fb of data and κc/Λ = 0.013 TeV −1 (κu/Λ = 0.0061 TeV) at the LHC with 10 fb of data. The two couplings may be dis...
متن کاملSpin Correlation in Top-Quark Production at Hadron Colliders
We propose techniques to observe the correlation of the spins of top quarks and antiquarks at the Tevatron and the LHC. Observation of the spin correlation would confirm that the top quark decays before its spin flips, and would place a lower bound on the top-quark width and Vtb. The spin correlation may also be a useful tool to study the weak decay amplitude of the top quark.
متن کاملTop quark pair production and decay at hadron colliders
In ongoing and upcoming hadron collider experiments, top quark physics will play an important rôle in testing the Standard Model and its possible extensions. In this work we present analytic results for the differential cross sections of top quark pair production in hadronic collisions at next-to-leading order in the QCD coupling, keeping the full dependence on the spins of the top quarks. Thes...
متن کاملTop quark and charged Higgs production at hadron colliders
I present a brief theoretical update on top quark pair production at the Tevatron and give values of the NNLO-NNNLL cross section for both mt = 175 and 178 GeV. I then present a calculation of the cross section for charged Higgs production in association with a top quark at the LHC, including NNLO soft-gluon corrections. 1 Top quark production at the Tevatron The properties of the top quark, in...
