Description
The unexpectedly large forward-backward asymmetry in top pair production observed at the Tevatron experiments represents one of the main puzzles in Top Physics today. At the LHC, despite the charge-symmetric initial state, it is possible to define a charge asymmetry sensitive to the same underlying dynamics as the FB asymmetry at the Tevatron. In this talk we will present the status of the charge asymmetry measurements at the LHC and the comparison with Standard Model and New Physics predictions.
