Overview of FCNC Searches in Top Events from CMS and ATLAS

The status of searches for flavor changing neutral currents (FCNCs) in top quark events from the ATLAS and CMS collaborations is presented. The results are quoted in terms of branching fractions $\mathcal{B}(t \rightarrow u/c + X)$ with $X$ being a gluon, photon, Higgs or Z boson. Different decay si...

Sumario:The status of searches for flavor changing neutral currents (FCNCs) in top quark events from the ATLAS and CMS collaborations is presented. The results are quoted in terms of branching fractions $\mathcal{B}(t \rightarrow u/c + X)$ with $X$ being a gluon, photon, Higgs or Z boson. Different decay signatures are probed and limits on $\mathcal{B}(t \rightarrow u/c + X)$ are shown. In an overview, these limits are compared to expectations for several scenarios beyond the Standard Model.
