Abstract
The top quark is the heaviest known particle and thus has a special place in the Standard Model of particle physics. Besides having interesting properties on its own, it is tightly connected to BSM physics in many scenarios. A precise understanding of its properties is necessary to make most of measurements at collider experiments. I present advances in fixed-order QCD predictions for the production and decay of top-quark pairs at the LHC and their phenomenological application.
