Description

We study electro-weak single-top quark production t-channel process at 10 TeV center-of-mass energy of the LHC. The analysis has been performed for anticipated 200 pb^-1 integrated luminosity using ATLAS Monte Carlo pseudo-data. We investigate cut based analysis optimization for t-channel into an electron final state. The main systematic uncertainty sources (jet energy scale, background normalization and etc.) to the cross section measurement have been considered in the optimization procedure. All main SM background processes (tT, W(bb)+jets, Z+jets, di-Boson, Wt) were included in the study.
