abstract = {A first measurement of the top quark spin asymmetry,
sensitive to the top quark polarisation, in t-channel single
top quark production is presented. It is based on a sample
of pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV
corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7
fb$^{−1}$. A high-purity sample of t-channel single top
quark events with an isolated muon is selected. Signal and
background components are estimated using a fit to data. A
differential cross section measurement, corrected for
detector effects, of an angular observable sensitive to the
top quark polarisation is performed. The differential
distribution is used to extract a top quark spin asymmetry
of 0.26 ± 0.03(stat) ± 0.10(syst), which is compatible
with a p-value of 4.6\% with the standard model prediction
of 0.44.},
