We study the potential of LHC to discovery the signal of Dark Matter with photon associated production induced by a dimension six effective operator, including NLO QCD corrections. We investigate the main backgrounds from SM, i.e. $Z$ boson…
Single-top-quark production probes the charged-current weak interaction of the top quark, and provides a direct measurement of the CKM matrix element V_{tb}. We perform two independent analyses to quantify the accuracy with which the…

We propose a kinematical enhancement of the t tbar charge asymmetry at the LHC by selecting events with the t tbar centre of mass frame highly boosted along the beam axis. This kinematical selection increases the asymmetries and their…
Precision measurement of the cross section for single top production is an important test of the Standard Model (SM). The purity of the collected data in single top events is limited by the understanding of the shape and yield of background…
We revisit the possibility that the top quark forward-backward asymmetry arises from the on-shell production and decay of scalar top partners to top-antitop pairs with missing transverse energy. Although the asymmetry is produced by…
