Top quark Physics at the LHC

An overview of recent results on top quark properties and interactions is given, obtained using data collected with the CMS and ATLAS experiments during the years 2011 and 2012 at 7 TeV and 8 TeV centre-of-mass energies. Measurements of top quark pair production cross sections in several top quark final states are reported. Moreover, cross sections for the electroweak production of single top quarks in both t- and tW-channels are shown. The mass of the top quark is extracted using several methods. Presented results also include measurements of the W helicity in top decays, the top pair charge asymmetry, the top quark charge and the search for anomalous couplings. Experimental outcomes are compared with standard model predictions and a combination of measurements between the different LHC experiments is reported when available.
