Top quark threshold production in $\gamma\gamma$ collision in the next-to-leading order

/ Abstract
The total cross section of the top quark-antiquark pair production near threshold in γγ collision is computed analytically up to the next-to-leading order in perturbative and nonrelativistic expansion for general photon helicity. The approximation includes the first order corrections in the strong coupling constant and the heavy quark velocity to the nonrelativistic Coulomb approximation.
