2 A selection of topics Top Quark Mass Event Shapes Strong coupling Constraining new physics N-jettiness Jet Shapes

3 Top Mass Extraction What is top mass? Top is colored parton. Top mass is a parameter of Lagrangian. Top mass is renormalization scheme dependent. top? top? Which top mass? Which mass scheme are experimentalists measuring? Not known! Mass scheme depends on method used to measure mass. Kinematic reconstruction no longer sufficient.

4 Threshold Scan (Fadin, Khoze; Peskin, Strassler;Hoang, Manohar, Stewart, Teubner) Top pair-production at threshold Shape of cross-section sensitive to top mass. Top width provides IR cutoff. Non-perturbative effects are small. QR 2 v t (b) Physics well understood LL, NLL, NNLL _ s (GeV) NRQCD is appropriate EFT. Well-defined relation to short distance mass; eg.1s mass NNLL results known. Precision: δm t 100 MeV

How do perturbative and non-perturbative effects modify relation between Lagrangian mass and experimental observable?

38 QCD at ILC ILC provides clean environment: - good oretical control over QCD effects interfering with new physics. - allows precision studies of QCD itself. Factorization orems - separate perturbative and non-perurbative physics. - simultaneously probes physics at multiple scales. - sensitive to new physics through running and perturbative corrections to hard functions - Universal non-perturbative functions. - Power corrections get smaller at higher energies; more precision. Precision top quark mass measurements: - at threshold - far away from threshold Strong coupling measurements - precise measurements of strong coupling. -evolution over large energy range; probe of new thresholds. Precision studies of multiple jet events. - new event shape observable: N-jettiness - study of jet shapes and including jet algorithms in factorization orems.
