Abstract
In this paper, we review the precision determination of the bottom and top quark masses from the total pair-production cross-section near threshold. The theory prediction of the cross-section includes QCD corrections up to third-order. We further discuss the combined impact of Higgs corrections, the QED Coulomb potential, non-resonant production, and P-wave production on the extraction of top quark properties.
