چکیده

We measure the mass of the top quark in lepton+jets final states using the full sample of pp collision data collected by the D0 experiment in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider at sqrt[s] = 1.96 TeV, corresponding to 9.7 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity. We use a matrix element technique that calculates the probabilities for each event to result from tt production or background. The overall jet energy scale is constrained in situ by the mass of the W boson. We measure m(t) = 174.98 ± 0.76 GeV. This constitutes the most precise single measurement of the top-quark mass.

Top-mass Measurements from D0

We present three recent analyses (Abstracts 169, 170 and 174) of the mass of the top quark (Mt) using top-antitop candidate events collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider: (i) a 3.6 events/fb sample of data in the lepton+jets channel analyzed to extract a precision value of Mt using the "Matrix-Element" (ME) method, wherein each event probability is calculated from the ...

Optimal Use of Information for Measuring M T in Lepton+jets Tt Events

(On behalf of the DØ collaboration) The observation of the top (t) quark served as one of the major confirmations of the validity of the standard model (SM) of particle interactions [1,2]. Through radiative corrections of the SM, the mass of the top quark, along with that of the W boson [3], provide the best indication for the value of the mass of the hypothesized Higgs boson [4]. The mass of t...

Measurement of top quark properties at √ s = 1 . 96 TeV using the DØ detector

Since the discovery of the top quark in 1995 at the Fermilab Tevatron collider, top quark properties have been measured with ever higher precision. The increase in data has provided the opportunity to probe many new aspects of the top quark sector. In addition to an updated measurement of the helicity of the W boson in t ¯ t events using 5.4 fb −1 , this review briefs three new analyses perform...

Top Quark Pair Production Cross Section and Forward-Backward Asymmetry at the Tevatron

The study of top quark pair production at the Tevatron is now entering the realm of precision physics. With 2.8 fb−1 of CDF data there are over 1200 reconstructed tt̄ events in the lepton + jets channel. As the integrated luminosity increases, it is possible to improve not only measurements of the properties of the top quark but also maybe to search for new physics by comparing the tt̄ cross sect...

Top physics prospects at LHC

With a high instantaneous luminosity and the large top quark pair production cross section, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will be a “top factory” allowing the analysis of millions of top events. After a short description of the top quark pair production mechanism and the cross section measurement, the accuracy of the top mass measurement needed for a sound consistency check of the Standard Mo...

Measurement of the top quark mass using charged particles in pp collisions at ffiffi s p = 8 TeV

A novel technique for measuring the mass of the top quark that uses only the kinematic properties of its charged decay products is presented. Top quark pair events with final states with one or two charged leptons and hadronic jets are selected from the data set of 8 TeV proton-proton collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb−1. By reconstructing secondary vertices inside...
