1 Calibration of the Top Quark Mass Parameter in Pythia 8.2 André H. Hoang University of Vienna
2 Why the top quark is not just heavy Top quark: heaviest known particle Most sensitive to the mechanism of mass generation Peculiar role in the generation of flavor. Top might not be the SM-Top, but have a non-sm component. Top as calibration tool for new physics particles (SUSY and other exotics) Top production major background it new physics searches One of crucial motivations for SUSY Excellent ground for high-precision studies of QCD and electroweak physics
3 Outline Introduction Monte Carlo generators and the top quark mass Calibration of the Monte Carlo top mass parameter Preliminary detailed results of first serious systematic analysis Summary, future plans In collaboration with: M. Butenschön B. Dehnadi, V. Mateu, M. Preisser I. Stewart CALIPER
4 A small history on top mass reconstruction Many individual measurements with uncertainty below 1 GeV. Some discrepancies between LHC and Tevatron Reached <500MeV range.
5 LHC+Tevatron Main Top Mass Measurements Methods Direct Reconstruction: Determination of the best-fit value of the Monte-Carlo top quark mass parameter kinematic mass determination High top mass sensitivity Precision of? Meaning of m t? Δ 0.5 GeV Δ ~ 200 MeV (projection)
6 Top quark mass reconstruction LHC: Principle of mass measurements: jet jet jet Identification of the top decay products Invariant mass distribution W b + m non pert. t p t - t p W - b jet ATLAS
7 Top quark mass reconstruction LHC: Principle of mass measurements: jet jet jet Identification of the top decay products Invariant mass distribution W b non pert. + mt p W t - t - b p depends on: * jet definition * Soft correlation effects * Color reconnection jet ATLAS
8 Top quark mass reconstruction LHC: Top Mass +? Principle of mass measurements: jet jet jet Identification of the top decay products p W W t - t - b b p Problem is non-trivial! Measured object does not exist a priori, but only through the experimental prescription for the measurement. Quantum effects!! The idea of a - by itself - well defined object having a well defined mass is incorrect!! jet First principles QCD calculations impossible for the direct reconstruction method! Only possible for Monte-Carlo generators.
9 Monte-Carlo Event Generators Full simulation of all processes (all experimental aspects accessible) QCD-inspired: partly first principles QCD partly model (observable-dependent) Description power of data better than intrinsic theory accuracy. Top quark: treated like a real particle ( pole +?). But pole mass ambiguous by O(1 GeV) due to confinement. Better mass definition needed. Uncertainty (a): But how precise is modelling? Part of exp. Analyses Unvertainty (b): What is the meaning of QCD parameters? Depends strictly speaking on the observable, because of model character of s! Must be adressed for each type of observable (until we have better s).
10 m t MS Scheme: Top Quark Mass = m MSR t (R = 1 GeV) + t, (R =1GeV) t,(1 GeV) O(1 GeV) MSR Mass Definition small size of Δ t, Renormalon-free AHH, Stewart 2008 AHH, 2014 little parametric dependence on other parameters MSR Scheme: (R <m(m)) Short-distance mass that smoothly interpolates all R scales pole mass subtraction for scales larger than R
11 Calibration of the Top Mass Method: 1) Strongly mass-sensitive hadron level observable (as closely as possible related to reconstructed invariant mass distribution!) 2) Accurate analytic hadron level QCD predictions at NLL/NLO with full control over the quark mass scheme dependence. 3) QCD masses as function of from fits of observable. 4) Cross check observable independence m t = m MSR t (R = 1 GeV) + t, (R =1GeV) t,(1 GeV) = + + pqcd + param Experimental systematics Monte Carlo errors: QCD errors: Parametric errors: different tunings parton showers color reconnection perturbative error scale uncertainties electroweak effects strong coupling α s Non-perturbative parameters Treated in our analysis Intrinsic error,
12 Thrust Distribution Observable: 2-jettiness in e+e- for Q ~ p T =1!0 M M 2 2 Q 2 max ~n P i ~n ~p i Q (boosted tops) Invariant mass distribution in the resonance region of wide hemisphere jets!
13 Boosted Top Mass Measurements at CMS Top mass from reconstruction of boosted tops consistent with low p T results. More precise studies possible with more statistics from Run2.

31 Summary First serious precise top quark mass calibration based on e + e - 2-jettiness (large p T ): closely related to observables dominating the reconstruction method NNLL+NLO QCD calculations based on an extension of the SCET approach concerning massive quark effects (all large logs incl. Ln(m) s summed systematically). The Monte Carlo top mass calibration in terms of MSR (1GeV): Scale dependence (NNLL): ~ 170 MeV α S dependence (δα S =0.002): ~ 50 MeV Intrinsic error: ~ 200 MeV Preliminary!!! top mass is tune-dependent and dependent! Using top mass calibration might eliminate these error sources frohe experimental analyses. Confirmation of the dependence predicted by calibration provides highly non-trivial cross check concerning the universality of the calibration.
