W Plus Heavy Quark Production at the Tevatron

Abstract

We summarize the motivations for and the status of the calculation of the $W +$ heavy quark production process in $p \bar p$ colliders to Next-to-Leading Order in QCD. This process can be used to constrain the strange quark distribution function at high $Q^2$ at the Tevatron, and also to study the bottom content of $W+1$~jet events. In addition, when crossed, the calculation essentially describes the single top quark production process to Next-to-Leading Order in QCD.
