Description
The potential of the LHC for investigation of anomalous top quark interactions with gluon
(tug, tcg) through the production of tW-channel of single top quark is studied. In the
Standard Model, the single top quarks in the tW-channel mode are charge symmetric
meaning that (pp ! t + W−) = (pp ! ¯t + W+). However, the presence of anomalous
FCNC couplings leads to charge asymmetry. In this paper a method is proposed in
which this charge asymmetry may be used to constrain anomalous FCNC couplings. The
strength of resulting constraints is estimated for the LHC for the center of mass energies
of 7 and 14 TeV.
