The top quark: a precision probe and a window to new phenomena — •Jan Kieseler — KIT, Karlsruhe, Germany

The top quark is one of the most interesting particles in the Standard Model of particle physics. Its mass exceeds those of all other fundamental particles, which implies a unique relationship with the Higgs Boson and makes it a possible portal to physics beyond the Standard Model. At the same time, its short lifetime allows probing its bare properties before hadronisation and it offers sensitivity to a variety of Standard-Model parameters through comparison to precision calculations. This talk will cover recent advances in the understanding of the top quark and its relation to other fundamental particles as well as give a flavour of what is yet to come in the next years.
