Abstract
A study of single top quark production via flavor changing neutral current interactions at vertices is performed at the future circular hadron electron collider. The signal cross sections for the processes and in the collision of an electron beam with energy and a proton beam with energy are calculated. In the analysis, the invariant mass distributions of three jets reconstructing top quark mass, requiring one b-tagged jet and two other jets reconstructing the mass are used to count signal and background events after all selection cuts. The upper limits on the anomalous flavor changing neutral current couplings are found to be at the future circular hadron electron collider for with the fast simulation of detector effects. Signal significance depending on the couplings is analyzed and an enhanced sensitivity is found to the branching ratio at the future circular hadron electron collider when compared to the current experimental results.
