- The top quark mass was measured in the channels t\(\overline{t}\) → lepton+jets and t\(\overline{t}\) → dilepton (lepton = e,μ) based on ATLAS data recorded in 2011. The data were taken at the LHC with a proton–proton centre-of-mass energy of \(\sqrt {s}\) = 7 TeV and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb\(^{-1}\). The t\(\overline{t}\) → lepton+jets analysis uses a three-dimensional template technique which determines the top quark mass together with a global jet energy scale factor (JSF), and a relative b-to-light-jet energy scaleThe top quark mass was measured in the channels t\(\overline{t}\) → lepton+jets and t\(\overline{t}\) → dilepton (lepton = e,μ) based on ATLAS data recorded in 2011. The data were taken at the LHC with a proton–proton centre-of-mass energy of \(\sqrt {s}\) = 7 TeV and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 4.6 fb\(^{-1}\). The t\(\overline{t}\) → lepton+jets analysis uses a three-dimensional template technique which determines the top quark mass together with a global jet energy scale factor (JSF), and a relative b-to-light-jet energy scale factor(bJSF), where the terms b-jets and light-jets refer to jets originating from b-quarks and u, d, c, s-quarks or gluons, respectively. The analysis of the t\(\overline{t}\) → dilepton channel exploits a one-dimensional template method using the m\(_{lb}\) observable, defined as the average invariant mass of the two lepton+b-jet pairs in each event. The top quark
mass is measured to be 172.33±0.75(stat + JSF + bJSF)±1.02(syst) GeV, and 173.79 ± 0.54(stat) ± 1.30(syst) GeV in the t\(\overline{t}\) → lepton+jets and t\(\overline{t}\) → dilepton channels, respectively. The combination of the two results yields m\(_{top}\) =172.99 ± 0.48(stat) ± 0.78(syst) GeV, with a total uncertainty of 0.91 GeV.…
