The top quark mass is measured using a template method in the $t\bar{t}\to$ lepton+jets channel (lepton is $e$ or $\mu$) using ATLAS data recorded in 2012 at the LHC. The data were taken at a proton-proton centre-of-mass energy of…

We present a new measurement of the top quark mass in $t\bar t$ events in which both $W$ bosons from top quarks decay into lepton ($e \nu,\mu \nu$). We use events collected by the CDF experiment from $p\bar p$ collisions at \sqrt s=1.8 TeV…

A sizeable difference in the differential production cross section of top- compared to antitop-quark production, denoted charge asymmetry, has been observed at the Tevatron. The experimental results seem to exceed the theory predictions…

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…

The mass of the top quark is a fundamental parameter of the standard model (SM) and has to be determined experimentally. The D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron proton-antiproton collider with a centre-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV has…

The top quark is by far the heaviest known fermion [1]. In consequence, experiment is just beginning to explore its properties, and some of them may yet prove to be distinctly non-standard. The very size of the top quark's mass even hints…

Single top-quark production, via weak-interaction processes, is an important test of the standard model, potentially sensitive to new physics. However, this measurement is much more challenging at the Tevatron than originally expected. We…

We know there is new physics at the electroweak scale, but we don't know what it is. Right now, the top quark is our only window on to this physics. In almost all models of electroweak symmetry breaking, top either couples strongly to new…
