Title: Measurements of the Properties of the Top Quark

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1022789

We review recent measurements of the properties of the top quark: the decay width of the top quark, of spin correlations between the top and the antitop quarks in t{bar t} production, the W boson helicity in top decays, the strong colour flow in t{bar t} events, and the asymmetry of t{bar t} production due to the strong colour charge. The measurements are performed on data samples of up to 5.4 fb{sup -1} of integrated luminosity acquired by the CDF and D0 collaborations in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron p{bar p} collider at a centre-of-mass energy of {radical}s = 1.96 TeV.
