TLDR
In this paper, the rate for heavy quark production via W-gluon fusion is calculated in the effective W approximation and excellent agreement is found with the exact calculation, and the contribution from the Drell-Yan mechanism and from gluon fusion.

Single top quarks at the Fermilab Tevatron

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the top quark mass, parton distribution functions, QCD scale, and collision energy, on each of the component production mechanisms, and study the kinematic distributions for standard model electroweak production were examined.

Single top quark production at the LHC: Understanding spin

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the single top quarks produced in the Wg-fusion channel at a proton-proton collider at a center-of-mass energy s = 14 TeV posses a high degree of polarization in terms of a spin basis which decomposes the top quark spin in its rest frame along the direction of the spectator jet.

Top quark physics in hadron collisions

TL;DR: The top quark is the largest elementary particle observed to date and its large mass makes it an ideal laboratory to test predictions of perturbation theory concerning heavy quark production at hadron colliders as discussed by the authors.

New method to detect a heavy top quark at the Fermilab Tevatron.

TL;DR: It is concluded that more than one year of running is needed to detect a 180-GeV top quark at the upgraded Tevatron via the {ital W-gluon fusion process and its detection becomes easier at the SSC due to a larger event rate.

Vector boson fusion at multi-TeV muon colliders

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that starting from collider energies of a few TeV, electroweak vector boson fusion/scattering at lepton colliders becomes the dominant production mode for all Standard Model processes relevant to studying the electroweak sector.

Ausstrahlung bei Stößen sehr schneller Elektronen

TL;DR: The Coulombfeld des „vorbeifliegenden“ gestosenen Atomkerns last sich dann als Strahlungsfeld auffassen; die Ausstrahlings ist Streuung dieser „Strahlsfeld nach der Klein-Nishina-Formel as mentioned in this paper, in which das stosende Elektron anfangs ruht.

The TeV physics of strongly interacting W's and Z's

TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the general signatures of a strongly interacting W, Z system and conclude that these two possibilities can be unambiguously distinguished by a hadron collider facility capable of observing the enhanced production of WW, WZ and ZZ pairs that will occur if W's and Z's have strong interactions.

Limit on mass differences in the Weinberg model

TL;DR: In this article, the Weinberg model was used to obtain an upper bound of about 800 GeV on mass differences within a multiplet and no limit on the average mass can be deduced.
