Abstract

The electroweak production of single-top quarks in the t channel can be\nchanged by any deviation from the standard model, it is therefore an excellent\nopportunity to search for new physics. In this poster the recent cross-section\nmeasurement performed by the CMS collaboration is presented with the full 2015\ndataset of the LHC Run II at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The cross\nsection and the top/antitop ratio is extracted using a binned maximum\nlikelihood fit to the distribution of a multivariate classifier in events\ncontaining one isolated muon in the final state.\n
