Aaaand the next @TopQuarkConf will be in #Beijing #topq2019 #topq2018

[Nuno Castro @nfcastro]

Time to wrap-up at @TopQuarkConf.

Given that our main #TOPQ2018 twitter-chief, @KirillSkovpen, is technically unavailable for tweeting (He is on stage you know!), allow me to fill in:
Now we get to see all details of the CMS ttH observation! @VUBrussel @IIHE_BXL @TopQuarkConf @FWOVlaanderen

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

Is the top quark heavy, or are all the other quarks just unusually light? An interesting question posed by Qing-Hong Cao at #TOPQ2018

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

Learning all about rare top-higgs processes in the mini ttH workshop at #TOPQ2018 with Tao Liu

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

Congratulations to @SethMoortgat, @claranellist and @JayHowarthHTGAP for all of your amazing posters! Some well deserved prizes on the important topics on EFT, effective science communication, and top quark properties.

[Seth Moortgat @SethMoortgat]

Proudly collected my poster price (3rd place) at #TOPQ2018 tonight! Given that this was voted by the audience, it feels very rewarding knowing that our work is positively received. @IIHE_BXL @FWOVlaanderen @TopQuarkConf

[Dr Clara Nellist @claranellist]

What a stunning room for a conference! This week, I'm at TOP2018, an international workshop dedicated to the heaviest particle we know of, the top quark!
Follow @TopQuarkConf and #TOPQ2018 for all the latest updates.

As well as giving us an example of a model that increases spin correlation, another possible explanation for the result from the @ATLASexperiment (the other being NNLO corrections)

Juan Antonio Aguilar Saavedra olympic vision on the future of #topquark physics: citius, altius, fortis @TopQuarkConf

After a minor technical fault we are back for day three! #TOPQ2018

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

We like to make students feel safe to ask questions at TOP, so we have dedicated Q&A sessions for students only. But before that we make them give five minute young scientist forum talks and mercilessly rank them. Always keep them guessing #TOPQ2018, #itsatrap

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

James Mead, our first ever @LHCbExperiment speaker at the annual top workshop, presenting a unique forward perspective on the top quark! #TOPQ2018

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

Time for some ttW and ttZ results from @claranellist on behalf of the @ATLASexperiment. Clara also manages ATLAS’s twitter account when she’s not tackling these tricky signatures. #multitasking #TOPQ2018

[Nuno Castro @nfcastro]

Marco Zaro discussing higher order corrections at @TopQuarkConf
Subleading contributions to ttW and 4 tops can be relevant!

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

“You’re measuring the pole mass, but not THIS pole mass”... theorists settle debate on pole vs. msbar mass last year, and make up a whole new one this year. #TOPQ2018

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

It wouldn’t be #TOPQ2018 without a mass argument!

[Nuno Castro @nfcastro]

@TopQuarkConf wouldn't be @TopQuarkConf without a good old discussion on what is the top mass and what is the meaning of our measurements of it!
#TOPQ2018

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

Regina Moles-Valls tells us about the latest single top measurements from @ATLASexperiment and @CMSexperiment. #TOPQ2018

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

Day two and it’s time for a morning on the top quark going solo, single top! We’re starting with a theory predictions from Rikkert Frederix.

[TopQuark @TopQuarkConf]

Check out the excellent photos from @nfcastro for a candid look at the conference! #TOPQ2018

The afternoon session for #TOPQ2018 @TopQuarkConf is starting, with a focus on differential measurements in an experimental and theory perspective
