Description
I will discuss the top quark forward backward asymmetry from the perspective of refining the SM calculation of A_FB and related top and dijet invariant mass decay spectra with electroweak Sudakov corrections. I will also weave in some propagandistic comments and results on new physics models that are flavour symmetric, and thus somewhat phenomenologically appealing as a new physics explanation of the A_FB excess -- if the anomaly continues to persist.
