We match next-to-leading order QCD results for single-top hadroproductionwith parton shower Monte Carlo simulations, according to the prescription ofthe MC@NLO formalism. In this way, we achieve the first practicalimplementation in MC@NLO of a process that has both initial- and final-statecollinear singularities. We show that no difficulties of principle arise fromthis complication, and present selected results relevant to the Tevatron.Comment: 31 pages Latex; 13 figures included.Minor modifications to the tex
