Electroweak Corrections to t-channel single top production at the LHC

Abstract

We describe the computation of the $\mathcal{O}({\alpha }^3)$ corrections for single top (and single anti-top) production in the $t$-channel at hadron colliders. We show also The genuine one loop SUSY contribution to these processes. Such contributions are generally quite modest in the mSUGRA scenario. The experimental observables would therefore only practically depend, in this framework, on the CKM $Wtb$ coupling.
