| contents | A significant excess of $t\bar{t}$ events near the production threshold was observed in LHC Run-2 data by the ATLAS Collaboration. It is consistent with the formation of $t\bar{t}$ quasi-bound states, which were first hypothesised almost 40 years ago. This contribution summarises the experimental results and outlines a path toward further characterisation of the excess. |
