We report two measurements of the top quark mass M_top using the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron in a 318 pb^-1 data sample observed in the lepton + jets final state. One method uses an event-based likelihood technique resulting in M_top = 173.2 +2.6/-2.4 (stat.) +/- 3.2 (syst.) GeV/c^2 or 173.2 +4.1/-4.0 GeV/c^2. The second method reconstructs a top quark mass in each event using the measured invariant mass of the hadronically decaying W boson to constrain the jet e...

A variety of top quark mass measurements has been made in the recent years by the CMS Collaboration. The most recent measurements performed at 8 TeV are reported here, along with a new measurement based on data collected in 2016 at 13 TeV. The current combination of these measurements has a relative uncertainty smaller than 0.3%, making the top quark the most accurately measured quark.

We summarize the top-quark mass measurements from the CDF and D0 experiments at Fermilab. We combine published Run-I measurements with the most recent Run-II measurements. Taking correlated uncertainties into account the resulting preliminary world average top-quark mass is Mt=170.9+/-1.1(sta)+/-1.5(sys) GeV/c2 assuming Gaussian systematic uncertainties. Adding in quadrature yields a total uncertainty of 1.8 GeV/c2, corresponding to a relative precision of 1.1% on the mass of...

The results on the measurements of the top-quark mass, based on the data collected by the Tevatron experiments CDF and D{\O}at Fermilab during Run I from 1992 to 1996, and Run II since 2001 are summarized. The combination of the published Run I and preliminary Run II results, taking correlated uncertainties properly into account, is presented. The resulting preliminary world average for the mass of the top quark is: $\MT=174.3 \pm 3.4 \GeVc2$, where the total error consists o...

First observed in 1995, the top quark is the third-generation up-type quark of the standard model of particle physics (SM). The CDF and D\O\ collaborations have analyzed many \ttbar\ events produced by the Tevatron collider, studying many properties of the top quark. Among these, the mass of the top quark is a fundamental parameter of the SM, since its value constrains the mass of the yet to be observed Higgs boson. The analyzed events were used to measure the mass of the top...

The most recent results of the top-quark mass measurements at the Tevatron at Fermilab are presented. Data were collected in proton-antiproton collisions at sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV by the CDF and D0 experiments. Top quark mass measurements in the lepton+jets, dilepton and alljet final states as well as their combination and the extraction of the mass from the cross-section measurement are presented.

The top quark, discovered at the Tevatron in 1995, is a very interesting particle. Precise measurement of the top properties using large data samples will allow stringent tests of the Standard Model and offer a unique window on new physics. In this report will be reviewed the status of the current knowledge of the top quark as provided by the Run I results of the CDF and D0 experiment. A first look at various preliminary measurements obtained with data collected during Run II...

Various measurements of the top quark mass in the lepton+jets decay channel of top quark pair production are presented. The measurements are performed on data samples of up to 2.7 fb-1 of integrated luminosity acquired by the CDF and D0 experiments in Run-II of the Tevatron proton-anti-proton collider at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV. The new Tevatron combination using up to 2.8 fb-1 of data results in a preliminary world average mass of the top quark of m_top...

The mass of the top quark is a fundamental parameter of the Standard Model and has to be determined experimentally. In these proceedings, I review recent direct measurements of the top quark mass in $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt s=1.96$ TeV recorded by the D0 experiment at the Tevatron. The measurements are performed in final states containing one and two charged leptons. I will present the legacy combination of all top quark mass measurements from the D0 experiment and thei...

The mass of the top quark is a fundamental parameter of the standard model (SM) and has to be determined experimentally. In this talk, I present the most recent measurements of the top quark mass in $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt s=1.96$~TeV recorded by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The measurements are performed in final states containing two leptons, using 5.4~\fb of integrated luminosity, and one lepton, using 9.7~\fb of integrated luminosity. The la...
