Description

Measurements of top quark properties using data collected by the CMS experiment at 13 TeV are presented. The top quark mass is measured in the lepton+jets channel is consistent with the CMS measurements of Run-1. The top quark mass is also studied as a function of the event kinematical properties. For the first time at the LHC, the width of the top quark is directly probed during Run-2, in what constitutes the most precise direct bound of the top quark width performed to date. Finally, searches for flavor-changing neutral currents involving top quarks are also discussed including tZq, and tHq couplings, in top quark pair and single top production.
