Top-quark electroweak couplings at the FCC-ee (original) (raw)

Abstract

An optimal-observable analysis of the lepton angular and energy distributions from top-quark pair production with semi-leptonic decays in e+e− collisions is used to predict the potential sensitivity of the FCC-ee to the couplings of the top quark to the photon and the Z.
