Single-top t-channel production with off-shell and non-resonant effects

Papanastasiou, A. S. ; Frederix, R. LU orcid ; Frixione, S. ; Hirschi, V. and Maltoni, F. (2013) In Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics 726(1-3). p.223-227
Abstract

This Letter details and discusses the next-to-leading order QCD corrections to t-channel electro-weak W+bj production, where finite top-width effects are consistently taken into account. The computation is done within the aMCatNLO framework and includes both resonant and non-resonant contributions as well as interferences between the two. Results are presented for the LHC and compared to those of the narrow-width approximation and effective theory approaches.
