We give an overview of measurements of properties of the top quark and
searches for new physics in the top sector by the D0 experiment. We show data of an
integrated luminosity of up to 5.3 fb-1 recorded at a centre-of-mass
energy of 1.96 TeV. Highlights are measurements of the top-anti-top quark
pair production cross section, of top quark couplings and width, of the top-anti-top quark...

Abstract
The top quark is a fundamental building block of the standard model. Due to the large cross section, top quarks will be copiously produced in high energy...

Top Quark Physics

Top-quark pairs are expected to be produced copiously at the LHC, even at the lower
beam energy and luminosity expected in the first years of running. Establishing the
top-pair signal and measuring the production cross-section are important benchmarks
for ATLAS, and will help understand the detector performance for events with high-pT
leptons, high jet multiplicity, missing transverse...

Top Quark Physics
oral
The first long physics run of LHC is currently taking place at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, and expected to go on until an integrated luminosity of 1 inverse femtobarn will have been collected. The CMS potential for Top quark studies with this initial dataset is discussed, with emphasis on searches for new particles decaying into top-antitop pairs, measurements of the heavy flavour...
