We investigate new physics scenarios where systems comprised of a single top quark accompanied by missing transverse energy, dubbed monotops, can be produced at the LHC. Following a simplified model approach, we describe all possible…
We investigate the potential of the early LHC to discover the signal of monotops, which can be decay products of some resonances in models such as R-parity violating SUSY or SU(5), etc. We show how to constrain the parameter space of the…
Scenarios of new physics where a single top quark can be produced in association with large missing energy (monotop) have been recently studied both from the theoretical point of view and by experimental collaborations. We revisit the…
Single sparticle creation in high energy collisions as a consequence explicit $R$-parity breaking, could be a rich source of highly spectacular signals at future colliders. One particular process, which could lead to a highly exotic…
Processes commonly studied at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are induced by quarks and gluons inside the protons of the LHC beams. In this letter we demonstrate that, since protons also contain leptons, it is possible to target…
We explore scenarios where top quarks may be produced singly in association with missing energy, a very distinctive signature, which in analogy with monojets, we dub monotops. We find that monotops can be produced in a variety of modes,…
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…
A search for the production of single-top-quarks in association with missing energy performed in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV with the ATLAS experiment is presented. No deviation from the Standard…
We investigate the sensitivity of the Large Hadron Collider to supersymmetric setups using monotop probes in which the signal is a single top quark produced in association with missing transverse energy. Our prospective study relies on…
We discuss the physics of single-top quark production and decay at hadron colliders, such as the Tevatron, the \tevstar~and the LHC. Our study includes how to measure the mass and the width of the top quark produced from a…
We study the production of the Higgs boson in association with a single top quark at hadron colliders. The cross sections for the three production processes (t-channel, s-channel, and W-associated) at both the Tevatron and the LHC are…
We study the possibility of detecting New Physics (NP) phenomena at the LHC through a new search strategy looking at the monotop (top plus missing energy) signature which is common to a variety of NP models. We focus on the leptonic top…
The production of top quarks in single mode at future ep colliders is studied, the attention being mainly focused to the case of the proposed LEPXLHC collider. We are motivated to reanalyse such a process following the discovery of the top…
Constraints on models which predict resonant top-quark pair production at the LHC are provided via a reinterpretation of the Standard Model (SM) particle level measurement of the top-anti-top invariant mass distribution, $m(t\bar{t})$. We…
Measurements of single top and rare top quark production may be sensitive to theories of physics beyond the standard model (SM), including those in which the energy scale of new physics is beyond the energies directly accessible at the…
We present a study of single top and single antitop quark production in the t-channel mode at the LHC pp collider at 7 TeV, 10 TeV and 14 TeV, including next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the production and decay of the top quark. We…
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.…
The Production of single top quarks at LHC provides an ideal framework to investigate the properties of electroweak interaction, in particular of the {\it tWb} coupling. Moreover, single top is a powerful mean to identify physics beyond the…
This report contains a brief summary of the latest single top quark production cross-section measurements performed by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations on pp collisions collected during Run 2 of the LHC. Various results for t-channel,…
We perform a detail theoretical study including decays and jet fragmentation of all the important modes of the single top quark production and all basic background processes at the upgraded Tevatron and LHC colliders. Special attention was…
