Top Decays in the Standard Model and Beyond
Abstract
In these proceedings we explore the possibility of new physics manifesting itself in rare top quark decays. In particular, we adopt an effective theory description of FCNC t -> q V top quark decays and possible deviations from the SM form of tWb vertices which would affect the helicity fractions of the W boson produced in the main decay channel of top quark.
