DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Benjamin Fuks (LPTHE Paris)\n\nThe top quark\, the h
 eaviest known elementary particle\, has long been thought unable to form b
 ound states. However\, intriguing hints in recent LHC data suggest that to
 ponium\, a short-lived quasi-bound state of a top-antitop pair\, might hav
 e left observable traces in data and possibly even been discovered. In thi
 s talk\, I will discuss why toponium is such a unique laboratory for study
 ing the theory of the strong interaction in the non-relativistic regime\, 
 how modern techniques allow us to incorporate bound-state effects into sta
 te-of-the-art collider simulations\, and what experimental signatures coul
 d reveal the presence of toponium in current and future LHC data. I will f
 inally highlight recent results\, ongoing searches and the exciting prospe
 cts for using toponium as a new window into the physics of the top quark.\
