The CDF and D0 collaborations at Fermilab's Tevatron p-pbar collider have in place an extensive program to measure fundamental properties of the top quark. Recent results from Run I (sqrt-s = 1.8 TeV) and Run II (sqrt-s = 1.96 TeV) on the…
Recent measurements of top-quark properties at the LHC and at the Tevatron are presented. The results include precision measurements of standard model parameters, such as the top-quark mass, the measurement of angular distributions as well…
Top quarks can be produced abundantly at hadron colliders like the Tevatron at Fermilab and the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, and a variety of measurements of top-quark properties have been gathered in the recent years from four…
I briefly review standard top quark physics at hadron colliders and summarize the contributions to this conference. The possibility of new mechanisms for $t\bar{t}$ production are also discussed.
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…
This dissertation addresses the question of how to detect light top squarks at the upgraded Fermilab Tevatron collider. After a brief introduction to supersymmetry, the basic phenomenology of the light stop is reviewed and the current…
Recent developments on approaches to the quark lepton mass problem are reviewed. In particular we discuss dynamical calculations of the top quark mass at (a) the infrared quasifixed point of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model…
The discovery of the top quark in 1995 opened a whole new sector of investigation of the Standard Model; today top quark physics remains a key priority of the Tevatron program. Some of the measurements of top quark properties, for example…
We explore various aspects of top quark phenomenology at the Large Hadron Collider and proposed future machines. After summarising the role of the top quark in the Standard Model (and some of its well-known extensions), we discuss the…
The top quark, discovered in 1995 at the Fermilab Tevatron collider from CDF and D0 experiments, remains by far the most interesting particle to test standard model because of its large mass and unique properties. Having data collected…
I summarize recent top quark physics results from the Fermilab Tevatron experiments. Since the observation of the top quark by CDF and D0 in 1995, the experimental focus has shifted to a detailed study of the top quark's properties. This…
We report the latest results on the top-quark mass and on the top-antitop mass difference from the CDF and D0 collaborations using data collected at the Fermilab Tevatron $p\bar{p}$ collider at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV. We discuss general issues…
The top quark is the heaviest of the six quarks of the Standard Model. Precise knowledge of its mass is important for imposing constraints on a number of physics processes, including interactions of the as yet unobserved Higgs boson. The…
Top quarks are produced at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider at Fermilab and at the Large Hadron (proton-proton) Collider at CERN in two ways: as quark-antiquark pairs, and singly. For each mode, the cross sections and future…

In this document we present several recent (July 2008) results from studies of the top quark properties at the CDF and D0 experiments at the Tevatron. Measurements of several top quark properties, as well as tests of new physics in the top…
The top quark, the heaviest known elementary particle discovered at the Fermilab Tevatron more than twenty years ago, has taken a central role in the study of fundamental interactions. Due to its large mass, the top quark provides a unique…
The top quark is the most recently discovered quark. Relatively little is known about its properties so far. Due to its very large mass of about $175 \rm GeV/c^2$, the top quark behaves differently from all other quarks and provides a…
I review how the top quark is embedded in the Standard Model and some its proposed extensions, and how it manifests itself in various hadron collider signals.
An overview of top physics and phenomenology at a high-energy linear collider is presented. A comprehensive study of top quark physics is possible at such a facility. The unique threshold production of top pairs would provide measurements…
