Shedding light on the tt̄ asymmetry: The photon handle

We investigate a charge asymmetry in tt̄γ production at the LHC that provides complementary information to the measured asymmetries in tt̄ production. We estimate the experimental uncertainty in its measurement at the LHC with 8TeV and 14TeV. We argue that, for new physics models that simultaneously...
