We study the processes $W_L W_L \to t \bar t$ and $W_L Z_L \to t\bar b (\bar t b)$ at future lepton colliders as probes of the couplings of the top quark to resonances at the TeV scale. We consider the cases in which the dominant low energy…

Achieving the ultimate precisions for multiple parameters simultaneously is an outstanding challenge in quantum physics, because the optimal measurements for incompatible parameters cannot be performed jointly due to the Heisenberg…
BaBar has measured with unprecedented accuracy the e+e- --> ppbar cross section from the threshold up to Q^2 ~ 20 GeV^2/c^4, finding out an unexpected cross section, with plateaux and negative steps. Evidence for a ratio |G_E/G_M|>1 has…
Top quarks are a prime system for hunting for new physics. Nonetheless, two decades on from their discovery few of their couplings have been measured to high precision. We present an overview of current determinations and the expected…
High-energy data has been accumulating over the last ten years, and it should not be ignored when making decisions about the future experimental program. In particular, we argue that the electroweak data collected at LEP, SLC and Tevatron…

We study the top-Higgs coupling with a CP violating phase $\xi$ at a future multi-TeV muon collider. We focus on processes that are directly sensitive to the top quark Yukawa coupling: $t\bar{t}h$, $tbh\mu\nu$, and $t\bar{t}h\nu\bar{\nu}$…
We propose a supersymmetric explanation for the anomalously high forward backward asymmetry in top pair production measured by CDF and D0. We suppose that it is due to the t-channel exchange of a right-handed sbottom which couples to d_R…
