Abstract

The effect of anomalous chromoelectric couplings of the gluon to the top quark are considered in e+ e- --> t tbar. The total cross section, as well as t and tbar polarizations are calculated to order alphas in the presence of the anomalous couplings. One of the two linear combinations of t and tbar polarizations is CP even, while the other is CP odd. Limits that could be obtained at a future linear collider on CP-odd combinations of anomalous couplings are determined.
