Top-quark charge asymmetry and polarization in tt¯W± production at the LHC

We study the charge asymmetry between the t and t¯ quarks at the LHC, when they are produced in association with a W boson. Though sizably reducing the cross section with respect to the inclusive production, requiring a W boson in the final state has two important implications. First, at leading ord...
