Top quark and leptonic charge asymmetries for the Tevatron and LHC

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compute several charge asymmetries to NLO QCD, including also the electromagnetic and weak-interaction corrections, both inclusively and with additional kinematic cuts and compare their results with recent experimental results and with SM predictions.

Asymmetries in top quark pair production at hadron colliders

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the current theoretical and experimental progress in understanding the asymmetries of top quark production at the Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton collider and discussed the prospects for the LHC to extend our understanding and to probe for new physics beyond the standard model paradigm.

Zero and one jet combined next-to-leading order analysis of the top quark forward-backward asymmetry

TL;DR: In this paper, the forward-backward asymmetry in the production of top quark pairs at the Tevatron collider was analyzed using Monte Carlo methods for merging matrix elements and parton showers to combine next-to-leading-order QCD predictions.

A general framework for implementing NLO calculations in shower Monte Carlo programs: the POWHEG BOX

TL;DR: The POWHEG BOX is illustrated to provide an illustration of the needed theoretical ingredients, a view of how the code is organized and a description of what a user should provide in order to use it.
