A review is presented of the current experimental status of the top quark sector of the Standard Model. The measurements summarized include searches for electroweak single top production, the latest results on the [Formula: see text] production cross-section, and searches for new physics in top quark production and decay.

Top Quark Forward-Backward Asymmetry and Same-Sign Top Quark Pairs
The top quark forward-backward asymmetry measured at the Tevatron collider shows a large deviation from standard model expectations. Among possible interpretations, a non-universal $Z^\prime$ model is of particular interest as it naturally predicts a top quark in the forward region of large rapidity.

Bottom-quark fragmentation in top-quark decay [PDF]
We study the fragmentation of the b quark in top decay in NLO QCD, within the framework of perturbative fragmentation, which allows one to resum large logarithms $\sim\log (m_t^2/m_b^2)$. We show the b-energy distribution, which we compare with the exact ${\cal O} ( _S)$ result for a massive b quark.

Recent measurements of top quark pair and single top production are presented. The results include inclusive cross sections as well as studies of differential distributions. Evidence for single top quark production in association with a W-boson in the final state is reported for the first time. Calculations in perturbative QCD up to approximate next-to-

Top quark physics: Summary [PDF]
This talk summarizes recent progress in top quark physics studies for high energy linear electron-positron colliders as presented at the LCWS2000 Workshop at Fermilab. New results were presented for top pair production at threshold and in the continuum, as well as for top production at $ $ colliders.

Total and Differential Cross Sections for Higgs and Top-Quark Production
I present theoretical calculations for Higgs-boson and top-quark production, including high-order soft-gluon corrections. I discuss charged-Higgs production in association with a top quark or a W boson, as well as single-top and top-antitop production ...

Top quark propertiesThere is tremendous progress in the study of top quark properties from time when the top quark was discovered by CDF and D0 collaboration in 1995 at TEVATRON collider. In this review we try to summarize results and methods how these results have been achieved. Aim is to emphasize problems and how these problems have been solved.

Flavor changing neutral currents in top quark production and decay
Top quark flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) interactions are highly suppressed in the Standard Model. Therefore, any large signal of FCNCs will indicate the existence of new interactions.

ATLAS has made several measurements of the top quark mass using proton-proton collision data recorded in 2012 at the LHC with a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. Those summarised here include an indirect determination of the top quark pole mass from lepton
