## TL;DR

This paper reviews charge asymmetries in top-antitop production at the LHC, analyzing proposed observables, comparing predictions, and discussing sensitivity to new physics during LHC Run II.

## Contribution

It provides a comprehensive review of charge asymmetry observables in various top-pair production processes at the LHC, including their potential to reveal new physics.

## Key findings

- Analysis of asymmetry observables in $tar t$ + jet, $tar t + W$, and $tar t + \gamma$ processes
- Comparison of Standard Model predictions for different asymmetry measures
- Discussion on the sensitivity of these observables to new physics during LHC Run II

## Abstract

This is a brief review of charge asymmetries in top-antitop quark production at the LHC. Proposed asymmetry observables in processes of associated top-pair production $t\bar t$ + jet, $t\bar t + W$, and $t\bar t + \gamma$ are analyzed and compared. While the focus is on standard-model predictions, we also comment on the sensitivity to possible new physics and observation prospects during the second runtime of the LHC.
