Description

I will present an update of the study of the top mass measurement and other top properties in a threshold scan, now using the luminosity spectrum of the new CLIC baseline machine. The optimisation of the machine for 380 GeV instead of 500 GeV leads to increased beamstrahlung when operated in the top threshold region, which may result in a degradation of the sensitivity of a threshold scan. The impact of this change will be discussed in the presentation.
