摘要
We study the soft gluon radiation effects for the s-channel single top quark production at the LHC. By applying the transverse momentum dependent factorization formalism, the large logarithms about the small total transverse momentum (q(perpendicular to)) of the single-top plus one-jet final state system are resummed to all orders in the expansion of the strong interaction coupling at the accuracy of next-to-leading Logarithm (NLL). We compare our numerical results with PYTHIA and find that both the q(perpendicular to) and phi* observables from PYTHIA are consistent with our prediction. Furthermore, we point out that the soft gluon radiation effects from the final state become significant in this process, especially for the boosted kinematical region.
