A theoretical study of top-mass measurements at the LHC using NLO+PS generators of increasing accuracy
Abstract In this paper we study the theoretical uncertainties in the determination of the top-quark mass using next-to-leading-order (NLO) generators interfaced to parton showers (PS) that have different levels of accuracy. Specifically we consider three generators: one that implements NLO correctio...
