Measurement of the t-channel single top-quark and top-antiquark differential cross-sections in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Differential cross-­section measurements of t­-channel single top­-quark production are presented. We use 20.2 fb−1 of data collected by the ATLAS experiment in proton–proton collisions in the LHC at a centre­-of­-mass energy of 8 TeV. Differential cross-­sections as a function of the transverse momentum and rapidity of both the top quark and the top anti-quark have been measured at both parton and particle level. The transverse momentum and rapidity differential cross­sections of the scattered light jet have been measured at particle level. All measurements are compared to different Monte Carlo predictions as well as to available fixed­-order QCD calculations.
