Abstract

I update the predicted leading order and next-to-leading order cross sections and total widths for W^\prime bosons that decay to top and bottom quarks at 14 TeV and 33 TeV pp colliders (pp -> W^\prime -> tb). Separate tables are included for right- and left-handed bosons. Theoretical uncertainties are completely dominated by parton distribution function uncertainties, and are computed for W^\prime_+- production at a 14 TeV pp collider.
