  "abstract": "We study the top forward-backward asymmetry (FBA $\\equiv A_{\\rm FB}$) reported by CDF and D0 Collaborations in the effective lagrangian approach. Using dimension-6 effective largrangians for $q \\bar{q} \\rightarrow t \\bar{t}$, we study the $t\\bar{t}$ production cross section and the $A_{\\rm FB}$, and a few observables: the FB spin-spin correlation that is strongly correlated with the $A_{\\rm FB}$, and longitudinal top polarization as a new probe of chiral structures for possible new physics scenarios.",
