Differential distributions for t-channel single top-quark production and decay at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD

Journal Article Berger, Edmond L. ; Gao, Jun ; Zhu, Hua Xing - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

We present a detailed phenomenological study of the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD corrections for t-channel single top (anti-)quark production and its semi-leptonic decay at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We find the NNLO corrections for the total inclusive rates at the LHC with different center of mass energies are generally smaller than the NLO corrections, indicative of improved convergence. However, they can be large for differential distributions, reaching a level of 10% or more in certain regions of the transverse momentum distributions of the top (anti-)quark and the pseudo-rapidity distributions of the leading jet in the event.

Helicity fractions of W bosons from top quark decays at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD

Journal Article Czarnecki, Andrzej ; Koerner, Juergen G ; Piclum, Jan H ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

Decay rates of unpolarized top quarks into longitudinally and transversally polarized W bosons are calculated to second order in the strong coupling constant {alpha}{sub s}. Including the finite bottom quark mass and electroweak effects, the standard model predictions for the W-boson helicity fractions are F{sub L}=0.687(5), F{sub +}=0.0017(1), and F{sub -}=0.311(5).

Next-to-leading order QCD corrections to s-channel single top quark production and decay at the LHC.

Journal Article Heim, S ; Cao, Q -H ; Schweinhorst, R ; ... - Phys. Rev. D

We present a study of electroweak production of top and antitop quarks in the s-channel mode at the LHC, including next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the production and decay of the single (anti)top quark. The spin is preserved in production and decay by using the narrow width approximation for the (anti)top quark. We show the effect of different O({alpha}{sub s}) contributions on the inclusive cross section and various kinematic distributions at parton level after imposing relevant kinematic cuts to select s-channel single top quark events. We also discuss several possibilities for measuring the top quark polarization.
