Measurement of the t-Channel Single Top Quark Production Cross Section in pp Collisions at [sqrt]s=7  TeV

Electroweak production of the top quark is measured for the first time in pp collisions at √s=7  TeV, using a data set collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36  pb-1. With an event selection optimized for t-channel production, two complementary a...
