Search for single production of a vector-like T quark decaying to tZ with CMS at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV

We present a search for single production of heavy vector-like quarks (VLQs), carried out by the CMS collaboration analyzing LHC pp collisions at 13 TeV. The vector like quark is a massive top quark partner that is searched for in a mass range between 0.7 and 1.7 TeV and a width between $<$1\% and 30\%. Single production can be dominant over pair production, depending on the mass of the new quark. The search is performed in a variety of final states including boosted topologies that can increase the sensitivity of the analysis.

Measurements of Electroweak Top Production at the LHC

The production of a single top quark at LHC may occur through charged-current electroweak interactions, i.e. via three different processes: the s-channel exchange of a virtual W boson, the t-channel exchange of a virtual W boson and the associated production of a top quark and a W boson (tW). In this paper a review of the measurements of the single-top production made both at ATLAS and CMS will be shown.
