We obtain bounds on the anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments of thet-quark from a future high-energy and high-luminosity linear electron positron collider, as the CLIC, with polarized and unpolarized electron beams which are powerful tools for determining new physics. We consider the processesγe-→t¯bνe(γis the Compton backscattering photon) ande+e-→e-γ⁎e+→t¯bνee+(γ⁎is the Weizsacker-Williams photon) as they are one of the most important sources of single top quark production. For systematic uncertainties ofδsys=0%  (5%),b-tagging  efficiency=0.8, center-of-mass energy ofs=3 TeV, and integrated luminosity ofL=2ab-1the futuree+e-collider may put bounds on the electromagnetic dipole momentsa^Vanda^Aof the top quark of the order ofO(10-2–10-1)at the2σ  (3σ)level, which are competitive with those recently reported in previous studies at hadron colliders and the ILC.

This review summarizes the highlights in the area of top quark physics obtained with the two general purpose detectors ATLAS and CMS during the first two years of operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It covers the 2010 and 2011 data taking periods, where the LHC provided pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of [Formula: see text]. Measurements are presented of the total and differential top quark pair production cross-section in many different channels, the top quark mass and various other properties of the top quark and its interactions, for instance the charge asymmetry. Measurements of single top quark production and various searches for new physics involving top quarks are also discussed. The already very precise experimental data are in good agreement with the standard model (SM).

The Higgs boson was discovered on the 4th of July 2012 with a mass around 125 GeV by ATLAS and CMS experiments at LHC. Determining the Higgs properties (production and decay modes, couplings,...) is an important part of the high-energy physics programme in this decade. A search for the Higgs boson production in association with a top quark pair (tt̄H) at ATLAS [1] is summarized in this paper at an unexplored center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, which could allow a first direct measurement of the top quark Yukawa coupling and could reveal new physics. The tt̄H analysis in ATLAS is divided into 3 channels according to the Higgs decay modes: H → Hadrons, H → Leptons and H → Photons. The best-fit value of the ratio of observed and Standard Model cross sections of tt̄H production process, using 2015-2016 data and combining all tt̄H final states, is 1:8±0:7, corresponds to 2:8σ (1:8σ) observed (expected) significance.

I review calculations of soft-gluon corrections for top-quark production in hadron collisions. I describe theoretical formalisms for their resummation and for finite-order expansions. I show that soft-gluon corrections are dominant for a large number of top-quark processes. I discuss top–antitop pair production as well as single-top production, including total cross sections and differential distributions, and compare with data from the LHC and the Tevatron. I also discuss top-quark production in association with charged Higgs bosons, Z bosons and other particles in models of new physics.

A review is presented of the current experimental status of the top quark sector of the Standard Model. The measurements summarized include searches for electroweak single top production, the latest results on the [Formula: see text] production cross-section, and searches for new physics in top quark production and decay. In addition, the recent measurement of the top quark mass to a precision of 0.7% is highlighted.

We give the anomalous [Formula: see text] couplings, which come from the top-color gauge bosons, and estimate their contributions to the process [Formula: see text] in top-color-assisted technicolor (TC2) theory. Our results show that the production cross-section is of the order of 100–10-1 fb for reasonable ranges of the parameters.
