Charge: Discussion of how top events may be used as a probe for new physics. Of special interest are associated production of new states, such as Higgs or topcolor, SUSY (top-stop mixing, decays to SUSY states, etc.), tt~ resonances, top rare decays, single top production as a probe for nonstandard couplings, CP violation, and so on. We put an emphasis on studies for Tevatron Run II, but all future colliders are welcome in discussion.
