Abstract:
The Next Linear Collider(NLC) will provide a excellent tool for probing the detailed nature of the top quark. By extending the recent analysis of Dokshitzer, Khoze and Sterling, we perform a preliminary examination of the influence of an anomalous chromomagnetic moment for the top, κ\kappa, on the spectrum of gluon radiation associated with ttˉt\bar t production. In particular, we analyze the sensitivity of future data to non-zero values of κ\kappa and estimate the limits that can be placed on this parameter at the NLC with center of mass energies s=\sqrt {s}= 500 and 1000 GeV.
