In this talk I will present recent preliminary results from the D0 experiment from Tevatron Run II ($p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1.96$ TeV). The results presented in this talk include top quark pair production cross section, top…
The precise measurement of top quark production and properties is one of the primary goals of the Tevatron during Run II. The total top-antitop production cross-section has been measured in a large variety of decay channels and using…
We consider top-antitop quark $(t{\bar t})$ production at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with subsequent decays into dileptonic final states. We use and investigate a set of leptonic angular correlations and distributions with which all…
We compare theoretical expectations for the observation of spin correlations in top quark pair production and decay at the Fermilab Tevatron and the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In particular, we note that the differing top quark pair…
We present a new measurement of the mass of the top quark using lepton + jets ttbar events collected by the DO experiment in Run I of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The mass is extracted through a comparison of each event with a…
The top quark is the heaviest elementary particle observed to date. Its large mass of about 173 GeV/c^2 makes the top quark act differently than other elementary fermions, as it decays before it hadronises, passing its spin information on…

We describe three recent results from D0 related to the top quark: a preliminary measurement of the t-tbar spin correlation in top quark pair production, a search for top quark decays into charged Higgs bosons, and an improved cross section…
The new CERN proton-proton collider, the LHC, is about to start in 2007 its data taking. Millions of top quarks will be available out of these data, allowing to perform a wide range of precision measurements and searches for new physics. An…
