TL;DR

This paper investigates how reflective scattering influences spin correlations in top quark production at the LHC, highlighting its importance in searches for extra dimensions and potential signals.

Contribution

It introduces the consideration of reflective scattering effects on spin correlations in top quark production, a factor previously overlooked in related analyses.

Findings

Reflective scattering can induce significant spin correlations at LHC energies.

These effects may impact the detection of signals related to extra dimensions.

The study emphasizes the need to account for reflective scattering in experimental analyses.

Abstract

The specific effects of the reflective scattering (antishadowing) related to the spin correlations in the top quark production at the LHC are considered. Account for those effects is important in the searches for the signatures of the extra dimensiones. It is shown that significant spin correlations could arise at the LHC energies due to reflective scattering and those can affect the signals of the extra dimensions.
