Present limits on the top mass from LEP1 and Tevatron point to a top quark that is considerably heavier than the $W$ vector boson in the standard model. Hence, e+e- colliders with \sqrt{s} \simeq 300 GeV (the c.m. energy foreseen at the…

We study single top production at linear lepton colliders with $\sqrt{s} = 0.5$, 1 and 3 TeV. A preliminary analysis shows that despite the large $t\bar t$ background at $\sqrt{s} = 0.5$ and 1 TeV it is possible to obtain a good sensitivity…
