Measurement of the differential t-channel production cross-section of single top quarks and top antiquarks in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV using the full Run 2 dataset recorded with the ATLAS detector — Dominic Hirschbühl, Lukas Kretschmann, •Maren Stratmann, and Wolfgang Wagner — Bergische Universität Wuppertal, Wuppertal, Deutschland
The t-channel production is the dominant process for single top quark and single top antiquark production at the LHC. The measurement of the differential cross section can contribute to constraining proton PDFs and has not been measured with the full Run 2 dataset up to date. This measurement uses the full Run 2 dataset recorded with the ATLAS detector in the years 2015-2018. The differential production cross-sections of the top-quark and top-antiquark as well as their ratio are measured on parton level as a function of the transverse momentum pT and rapidity |y| of the top quark.
