Abstract
The associated tW single top production channel is one of the main mechanism of the electroweak production of top quarks at the LHC. Correct simulation of the SM prediction for this process is one of the important tasks in the SM measurements and BSM searches. One of the difficulties to simulate it correctly is a significant contribution of the interference terms with the pair top quark production. In this article authors compare most popular simulation schemes for tW production with simulation of the complete set of diagrams and propose new scheme to simulate interference terms without negative weights of the events.

In the full modeling scheme, which will be referenced as a “Full scheme”, different terms contribute in total cross section
The curves for Diagram Removal” (DR), DS, contact interactions approaches, full scheme and pair top quark production are shown on the plots
Summary
In this article which we call “contact interactions” (CI) scheme. The CI scheme solves number of simulation problems. These schemes were implemented in CompHEP [9, 10] package and the necessary simulations have been performed.
