The single top quark production has an electroweak nature and provides an additional to the top pair production source of the top quarks. The processes involving single top have unique properties, they are very interesting from both…
The production of single top quarks occurs via three processes: t-channel, s-channel and tW associated production. The LHC experiments have observed single top production via t-channel at 7 TeV and measured its cross section, providing a…
We show how single top production in conjunction with a variety of additional final states provides a sensitive probe of new physics. We investigate several new physics scenarios such as lepto-phobic W' model, and exotic B' model, and then…
At the LHC, top quarks can be produced singly with a sizeable rate via electroweak interactions. This process probes a limited set of top-quark electroweak couplings, i.e. , the same entering the top-quark decay, yet at higher scales and…
We consider single-top production as a probe for new physics effects at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We argue that for natural theories a small deviation from the Standard Model tree-level couplings in this reaction can be parameterized…
The production of top quark in electroweak processes was first observed in 2010 at the Tevatron. Since then it has been carefully studied at both LHC and Tevatron. Single top production proceeds through different channels and allows a…
The latest results on top quark physics, namely single top quark production cross sections, $W$-boson helicity and asymmetry measurements are used to probe the Lorentz structure of the $Wtb$ vertex. The increase of sensitivity to new…
Extensions of the standard model that include new W bosons or extended technicolor gauge bosons can predict sizeable changes in the rate of single top quark production, even when constrained to be consistent with precision electroweak data.…
Single top production processes at hadron colliders provide information on the relation between the top quark and the electroweak sector of the standard model. We compute the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the three main…
Single-top production processes have been studied using 0.7 fb-1 of data from 7 TeV center-of-mass energy proton-proton collisions collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Single-top is electroweak top production and the standard model…
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…
High-energy photon-proton interactions at the LHC offer interesting possibilities for the study of the electroweak sector up to TeV scale and searches for processes beyond the Standard Model. An analysis of the W associated single top…
We show that studying the single top quark production via the $W$--gluon fusion process can provide unique information on: (i) the measurement of the decay width $\width$; (ii) probing the symmetry breaking mechanism by measuring the form…
Single top-quark production through the exchange of a t-channel W-boson is the main electroweak production mode for top quarks at the Large Hadron Collider. I discuss a recent development in the theoretical predictions for this process, in…
Single top quark production in association with vector bosons provides a unique way to probe the electroweak sector of the standard model at the Large Hadron Collider. In this talk the latest experimental results of the ATLAS and CMS…
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…
This paper is an experimental review of the study of processes with a single top quark at the LHC. The pioneering times are over, and this is now a sector of "precision physics" at colliders. Angular distributions of the decay products of…
The potential of muon colliders to address fundamental physics issues is explored, with emphasis on understanding the nature of electroweak symmetry breaking. The $s$-channel production of Higgs bosons, unique to a muon collider, along with…
The CMS experiment has measured the electroweak production of top quark in different singly production modes: t-, tW- and s-channel. Recent results on inclusive and differential cross section measurements of t-channel at 13 TeV and of the…
The weak decay of a polarized top quark has a rich structure of angular correlations among its decay products. We describe some of the noteworthy features of such decays. We then examine the three modes of single top production, with an…
