Modeling of t-channel single top-quark production at the LHC

We study the modeling of t-channel single top-quark production at Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies. We compare predictions at next-to-next-to-leading order in a 5-flavor scheme to those of next-to-leading order in a 4-flavor scheme, finding the two schemes agree within a few percent in general f...
