Abstract
I present approximate results that include third-order soft-gluon corrections for the associated production of a single top quark with a boson. The calculation uses expressions from soft-gluon resummation at next-to-next-to-leading-logarithm (NNLL) accuracy. From the NNLL resummed cross section I derive approximate next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (aNLO) cross sections for the process at LHC and Tevatron energies. The aNLO top-quark transverse-momentum and rapidity distributions in production are also presented.
