Description

In this contribution we outline the path towards studying top quark properties at the multi-TeV collisions of the CLIC physics programme. We discuss the jet reconstruction performance utilising a fat-jet approach and subsequent methods to identify the underlying top sub-structure in boosted topologies. We present results on the cross-section and forward-backward asymmetry as well as an interpretation of the results from the full CLIC programme in terms of EFT operators.
