The top quark pairs produced at a polarized muon collider are in a (nearly) pure spin configuration. This result holds for all center-of-mass energies, and is insensitive to the next-to-leading order QCD radiative corrections. The decay…
Theoretical results are presented for top quarks produced in annihilation of polarized electrons on positrons. Polarization studies for $t\bar t$ pairs near threshold are free from hadronization ambiguities. This is due to the short…
The production of a single top quark in association with an isolated photon probes the electromagnetic coupling structure of the top quark. We investigate the sensitivity of kinematical distributions at the LHC in single-top-plus-photon…
Recent results on production and decays of polarized top quarks are reviewed. Top quark pair production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation is considered near energy threshold. For longitudinally polarized electrons the produced top quarks and…
Top quark polarization provides an important tool for studying its production mechanisms, spin correlations, top quark properties, and new physics searches. Unlike lighter quarks, the top quark's polarization remains intact until its decay,…
The Tevatron, where the top quark was discovered, and the currently functional Large Hadron Collider (LHC), with copiously produced top pairs, enable a detailed study of top-quark properties. In particular, they can be used to test the…
The study of the properties of the top quark is one of the main goals of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) physics program. The experimental precision expected at the LHC requires the calculation of several top-quark related observables…
This thesis presents a study of the prospects of measuring electroweak production of the top quark at the LHC. The study of the top quark is a highly topical subject as we expect significant numbers of top quarks at the LHC which will…
Top squark (stop) plays a crucial role in the naturalness of supersymmetry (SUSY) models, which has been extensively searched for in the LHC experiments. Due to the parity-violating couplings, top quark and chargino thus produced from stop…
Top quark studies at future $e^+e^-$ colliders are considered. Two issues are discussed: {a --}Some results are presented on the decays of top quarks. Energy distributions of charged leptons and neutrinos in $t\to bW\to be^+\nu$ and jets in…
We investigate the single top quark production with the exchange of unparticles through high energy photon-photon collision $\gamma \gamma\to t \bar c$. The effects of unparticles on the scattering cross sections for different polarization…
Longstanding puzzles in spin physics can be confronted at the high energies of the LHC. Will large s-quark and c-quark polarization be observed through heavy hyperon production? Top quarks are expected to have significant polarization -…
Overview on top couplings measurements is presented, and the prospects of future measurements are discussed. The coupling of top to the W boson can be examined either by looking at the decay of the top quark or from single top quark…
We point out that events with 6 or more top quarks may be observed at the LHC if certain particles exist at the TeV scale. In a model where a vectorlike quark of charge 2/3 decays into a top quark and a pseudoscalar particle, which…
The recent observation of entanglement between top and anti-top quarks at the LHC opens the way to interpreting collider data with quantum information tools. In this work we investigate the relevance of quantum observables in searches of…
Top quark production in the process $e^+e^- \rightarrow t\bar{t}$ at a future linear electron positron collider with polarized beams is a powerful tool to determine the scale of new physics. Studies at the $\ttbar$ threshold will allow for…
Production of single top quarks at a high energy hadron collider is studied as a means to identify physics beyond the standard model related to the electroweak symmetry breaking. The sensitivity of the $s$-channel $W^*$ mode, the…
Vector-like quarks (VLQs) are attractive extensions to the Standard Model. They mix with the SM quarks and can lead to rich phenomenology. Determination of VLQ's interaction structure with the SM is then an important issue, which can be…
The current theoretical predictions for the observables related to the top-quark pair and the single-top productions at hadron colliders are briefly reviewed. The theoretical predictions are compared to the experimental measurements carried…
We study the mechanism of single top production at the LHC in the framework of an effective electroweak Lagrangian, analyzing the sensitivity of different observables to the magnitude of the effective couplings that parametrize new physics…
