We present the calculation of the Wt single-top production channel to next-to-leading order in QCD, interfaced with parton showers within the MC@NLO formalism. This channel provides a complementary way of investigating the properties of the…

Measurements of single top quark production are presented, performed using CMS data collected in 2011 and 2012 at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The cross sections for the electroweak production of single top quarks in the…

We present the first complete next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD predictions for differential distributions in the top-quark pair production process at the LHC. Our results are derived from a fully differential partonic Monte Carlo…

First evidence for single top quark production has recently been found by both the D0 and CDF experiments. By combining three analyses, D0 measured a cross section of 4.7 +- 1.3 pb, with a significance of 3.6 standard deviations, and CDF's…

We examine the effect of higher-order QCD corrections on the four top-quark production cross section in the $3$ lepton decay channel. Top-quark and $W$ gauge-boson decays are included at next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. The…

We present a search for electroweak production of single top quarks in the s-channel and t-channel using neural networks for signal-background separation. We have analyzed 230 pb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab…

A combined search for standard model four-top-quark production in the single lepton plus jets and dilepton channels will be presented. The analysis utilises the 2015 dataset recorded by the CMS experiment at sqrt(s) = 13 TeV which…

This article reports on recent searches for single-top-quark production by the CDF and DO collaborations at the Tevatron. Neither two CDF analyses, using data corresponding to 695 pb^-1 of integrated luminosity, nor a DO search based on 370…

We study the pair production of scalar top-quark partners decaying to a top-quark pair plus large missing energy at the LHC, a signature which appears in numerous models that address outstanding problems at the TeV-scale. The severe…

I present new results and updates for total cross sections and differential distributions in top-antitop pair and single-top production. Soft-gluon corrections are added to exact fixed-order results to provide the best predictions at…

We present next-to-leading order QCD predictions for a variety of distributions in W+3-jet production at both the Tevatron and the Large Hadron Collider. We include all subprocesses and incorporate the decay of the W boson into leptons. Our…

The CDF Collaboration has analyzed 955/pb of CDF II data to search for electroweak single top quark production at the Tevatron. We employ three different analysis techniques to search for a single top signal: multivariate likelihood…

We present a fully differential and spin-dependent $t$-channel single-top-quark calculation at next-to-leading order (NLO) in QCD including off-shell effects by using the complex mass scheme in the Standard Model (SM) and in the Standard…

The study of top-quark production and decay is central in the LHC physics programme, allowing precise tests of the Standard Model and offering a window on possible new physics. Accurate theoretical predictions for this process are therefore…

The study of the top quark's properties is an important part of the LHC programme. In earlier work, we have studied the rare decay $t \to b \bar b c$, using effective operators to capture the effects of physics beyond the Standard Model.…

We compare the fixed-order NLO QCD predictions for the $pp\to t\bar{t}t\bar{t}+X$ process in the $4\ell$ decay channel with the parton-shower based results obtained with the POWHEG and MC@NLO matching methods. In the first case, NLO QCD…

We discuss the production of single top-quark final states by direct supersymmetric flavor-changing interactions at the LHC. The total cross section pp(gg)->t\bar{c}+\bar{t}c is computed at the 1-loop order within the unconstrained MSSM. We…

State-of-the-art theoretical predictions accurate to next-to-leading order QCD interfaced with {\sc pythia} and {\sc herwig} are tested by comparing the unfolded $t\bar{t}$ differential data collected with the CMS detector at 8 TeV and 13…

We present theoretical results at approximate NNLO in QCD for top-quark pair-production total cross sections and top-quark differential distributions at the LHC in the SMEFT. In this work we consider effects of new physics parametrized by…

Recent measurements of top quark pair and single top production are presented. The results include inclusive cross sections as well as studies of differential distributions. Evidence for single top quark production in association with a…
