Study of Jet Fragmentation for the Measurement of the Top Mass with CDF

Simon Sabik, University of Toronto   

The measurement of the top quark mass is a vast and important effort
in the Collider Detector at Fermilab collaboration. A large number of
high energy scientists work on the many instrumental and analytical
issues in order to improve this measurement, which will lead to a test
of the Standard Model. I will present an overview of the top mass
measurement analysis, while keeping an emphasis on the aspects in
which I am most directly involved. I will discuss how the study of the
fragmentation of jets leads to an improved jet energy calibration,
which is crucial to a precise determination of the top quark mass.
