Searches for new physics in the top sector can shed additional light on the structure of the Standard Model at and above the weak scale. Many extensions of the Standard Model predict top partners or heavy resonances decaying to boosted top quarks. The HEPTopTagger identifies top quarks inside large and massive jets. Similarly, we can approximately reconstruct leptonically decaying boosted tops. We show recent results from performance studies and new applications of such boosted top searches.
