Bound-state effects on kinematical distributions of top quarks at hadron colliders
read the original abstract
First we present a theoretical framework to compute the fully differential cross sections for the top-quark productions and their subsequent decays at hadron colliders, incorporating the bound-state effects which are important in the t\bar{t} threshold region. We include the bound-state effects such that the cross sections are correct in the LO approximation both in the threshold and high-energy regions. Then, based on this framework we compute various kinematical distributions of top quarks as well as of their decay products at the LHC, by means of Monte-Carlo event-generation. These are compared with the corresponding predictions based on conventional perturbative QCD. In particular, we find a characteristic bound-state effect on the (bW^+)-(\bar{b}W^-) double-invariant-mass distribution, which is deformed to the lower invariant-mass side in a correlated manner.

Masses of Purely Top-Quark Bound States: Toponium and the Triply-Top Baryon

Possible mixing between elementary and bound state fields in the $t\bar{t}$ production excess at the LHC
Mixing angle between toponium and elementary field Ψ is constrained to |θ| ≤ 13° (minimal model) or |θ| ≤ 1° (2HDM Type II/Y) to fit CMS ttbar excess under MPP.
