CP violating asymmetries of b quarks and leptons in e^+e^- \to t\bar t and supersymmetry (review)

The distributions of the single decay b-quarks and leptons from e^+e^- \to t\bar t assuming CP violation are reviewed. Different asymmetries, sensitive independently to CP violation in the production and in the decay, and sensitive to the real and imaginary parts of d^γand d^Z are defined. The analytic expressions are general and independent on the model of CP violation. In most of them all phase space integrations are fulfilled analytically. Numerical results in the MSSM with complex couplings are presented.

On the top-quark polarization and how to measure it

The top quark is expected to decay as a free particle with definite momentum and polarization. Here we consider the possibilities to obtain information about its polarization through the energy and angular distributions of the b-quarks from the decay of the top-quarks produced in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. Analytic expressions and numerical estimates for different beam polarizations are derived.
