Abstract

I present approximate next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) top-quark transverse momentum, pT , distributions in t-channel single-top production. These distributions are derived from next-to-next-to-leading-logarithm (NNLL) soft-gluon resummation. Theoretical results for the single top as well as the single antitop pT distributions are shown for LHC and Tevatron energies.
