Top and bottom quark forward-backward asymmetries at next-to-next-to-leading order QCD in (un)polarized electron positron collisions

Abstract We consider, at order α s 2 $$ {\alpha}_s^2 $$ in the QCD coupling, top-quark pair production in the continuum at various center-of-mass energies and b-quark pair production at the Z resonance by (un)polarized electron and positron beams. For top quarks we compute the forward-backward asymm...
