Abstract
Large extra dimension effects on the spin configuration of the top quark pair at the process are studied. It is shown that the TeV scale quantum gravity effects cause significant deviations from standard model (SM) predictions for the spin configuration in the off-diagonal basis: they lead to substantial cross sections of the like-spin states of the top quark pair, which vanish in the SM; they weaken the pure dominance of the processes, the up-down (down-up) spin states for the left-handed (right-handed) beam. In addition it is shown that the angular cut is very effective to determine the sign of the quantum gravity corrections.
