We present a new next-to-leading order calculation for fully dieren tial single-topquark nal states. The calculation is performed using phase space slicing and dipole subtraction methods. The results of the methods are found to be in agreement. The dipole subtraction method calculation retains the full spin dependence of the nal state particles. We show a few numerical results to illustrate the utility and consistency of the resulting computer implementations.
