Abstract
We calculate the linear polarization of gluons radiated off top quarks produced in e(+)e(-) annihilations. For typical top quark pair produc tion energies at the Next Linear Collider the degree of linear polariz ation remains close to its soft gluon value of 100% over almost the wh ole energy spectrum of the gluon. The massive quark results are compar ed with the corresponding results for the massless quark case.
