CC Single Top: Status of Vtb at LHC
Georgio Chiarelli, arXiv:1302.1773
Further detector level studies are needed to assess the LHeC potential for Vtb (Acceptance, Backgrounds from W production etc.)

• Extremely suppressed in SM
• Potential window to BSM

Using anotop MC with Kutg=0.01: Expect for 7 TeV x 70 GeV LHeC with 1000 fb-1
7600 FCNC top eventsBut large backgrounds from SM W and CC single top

• Study top production for the first time at an ep collider is a unique test of the SM
• Single Top production in charged currents: Expect precision measurement of Vtb
• Top Pair production in DIS and photoproduction: clean test of proton gluon density at high x (but suffers from rather low statistic)
• In general: sensitive tests of new physics through anomalous production channels/cross sections and decays
• Further studies at detector level needed (including background simulation) for detailed assessment of physics potential.
