Abstract

In this note we consider the sensitivity of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)\nto the single production of new heavy vector-like quarks. We consider a model\nwith large mixing with the standard model top quark with electroweak production\nof single heavy top quarks. We consider center of mass energies of 14, 33, and\n100 TeV with various pileup scenarios and present the expected sensitivity and\nexclusion limits.\n
