Differential cross sections in the top quark sector measured at the Fermilab Tevatron collider are presented. CDF used 2.7 fb$^{-1}$ of data and measured the differential cross section as a function of the invariant mass of the $t\bar{t}$ system. The measurement shows good agreement with the standard model and furthermore is used to derive limits on the ratio $\kappa /M_{Pl}$ for gravitons which decay to top quarks in the Randall-Sundrum model. D0 used 1.0 fb$^{-1} of data to measure the differential cross section as a function of the transverse momentum of the top quark. The measurement shows a good agreement to the higher order perturbative QCD prediction and various predictions based on various Monte-Carlo generators.
