Single top production in association with 2 jets at NLO QCD — Till Martini, •Stefan Mölbitz, and Peter Uwer — Institut für Physik - AG Phänomenologie der Elementarteilchenphysik jenseits des Standardmodells, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin

Single top production allows a detailed study of the weak interaction of the top quark. A large fraction of single top quark events is accompanied by additional jets. For precise measurements a solid understanding of t+2-jet production is thus mandatory. Since LO predictions suffer from large scale uncertainties, NLO calculations are required. Furthermore the NLO corrections to t+2-jets are also relevant for the NNLO corrections to single top quark production. In this talk NLO QCD corrections for single top quark production in in association with two jets are presented.
