Top Mass Measurements at the Tevatron Run II

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2016-08-31 v1

Abstract

The latest top quark mass measurements by the CDF and D\O~ experiments are presented here. The mass has been determined in the dilepton (\ttbareμ,ee,μμ\ttbar \to e\mu,ee,\mu\mu + jets +\met\met) and lepton plus jets (\ttbare\ttbar \to e or μ\mu + jets +\met\met) final states. The most accurate single result from lepton plus jets channel is 173.53.6+3.7^{+3.7}_{-3.6}(stat. + Jet Energy Scale Systematic)±1.3\pm1.3(syst.) ~GeV/c2^{2}, which is better than the combined CDF and D\O~ Run~I average. A preliminary and unofficial average of the best experimental Run~II results gives MtopM_{top} = 172.7±3.5172.7\pm3.5 GeV/c2{^2}.
