The Top/QCD Working Group, convened by Lynne Orr and Aurelio Juste, focuses on critical physics topics such as top mass, couplings, rare decays, and QCD measurements. Recent developments, including the significance of precision top mass measurement and advances in photon structure functions, highlight the group's ongoing research and collaboration efforts. While recent fluctuations in U.S. activity have impacted workshop sessions, the group continues to prioritize understanding top physics and QCD.
