Single top: prospects at LHC

Abstract
Single top quark processes are interesting as direct probes of the vertex, and are also an important background in searches of the Higgs boson and beyond the standard model physics. Both ATLAS and CMS have performed studies with simulated data to estimate the expected uncertainty on the production cross section measurements of the three single top processes (-channel, s-channel, production) in the first years of LHC operations. Results in the different channels and for the two experiments are reported.
