Abstract:	摘要： A measurement of the single-top-quark t-channel production cross section in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC is presented. Two different and complementary approaches have been followed. The first approach exploits the distributions of the pseudorapidity of the recoil jet and reconstructed top-quark mass using background estimates determined from control samples in data. The second approach is based on multivariate analysis techniques that probe the compatibility of the candidate events with the signal. Data have been collected for the muon and electron final states, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 1.17 and 1.56 inverse femtobarns, respectively. The single-top-quark production cross section in the t-channel is measured to be 67.2 $\pm$ 6.1 pb, in agreement with the approximate next-to-next-to-leading-order standard model prediction. Using the standard model assumption that the CKM matrix element abs(V[tb]]) is less than one, we infer the interval 0.92 < abs(V[tb]]) <= 1 at the 95% confidence level.

Using the standard model electroweak couplings, the CKM matrix element abs(V[tb]]) is measured to be 1.020 +/- 0.046 (meas.) +/- 0.017 (theor.). 出版者： United States: Springer 出版日期： 2012-12-01 出處： Journal of High Energy Physics (Online), 2012-12, Vol.2012 (12), Article 35 資源來源： Publicly Available Content Database 版權： CC0 1.0 - Universal 識別號： ISSN: 1029-8479 識別號： ISSN: 1126-6708 識別號： ISSN: 1127-2236 識別號： EISSN: 1029-8479 識別號： DOI: 10.1007/JHEP12(2012)035
