Differential and total cross sections for top pair and single top production

Understand

I present theoretical results at approximate NNLO from NNLL resummation for top quark production at the LHC and the Tevatron, including new results at 8 TeV LHC energy.

• Total cross sections are shown for t tbar production, for single top production in the t and s channels and via associated tW production, and for associated tH- production.
• Top quark transverse momentum and rapidity distributions in t tbar production are also presented, as well as new results for t-channel single top and single antitop pT distributions.
