Description

Top quark physics is one of the most important successes of the concluding Tevatron program. In this talk, a summary of the most recent measurements of top quark properties, including the mass and its Winter 2011 average, will be presented. Some common techniques and discussion of major systematic uncertainties for top measurements will also be presented. Furthermore, the possibility to use top samples for future improvement of the jet calibration and resolution for b and light jets will be discussed as well.
