6 it is there why study the top quark? properties are fundamental parameters it is the dominant contributor to sm corrections m t >>m b largest contributor to radiative corrections, e.g. to W mass it couples strongly to the Higgs sector maybe we can learn about EWSB it is as close as we can get to a ``bare quark short lifetime τ 10-4 s < Λ -1 QCD 10-3 s top decays before hadronizing 11/8/006 DESY seminar - Ulrich Heintz 6 no confinement effects can perform

8 how do we measure quark masses? quarks are confined quarks cannot be observed in isolation measure mass of color-singlet bound states (hadrons) use lattice QCD to relate to quark mass top is short-lived τ 10-4 s decays to Wb before it can form hadrons reconstruct mass from its decay products 11/8/006 DESY seminar - Ulrich Heintz 8
