Descripción
A new set of measurements of the top quark mass are presented, based on the proton-proton data recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC at √{s }=8 TeV corresponding to a luminosity of 19.7 fb-1 . The top quark mass is measured using the lepton+jets , all-jets and dilepton decay channels, giving values of 172.35 ±0.16 (stat )±0.48 (syst ) GeV , 172.32 ±0.25 (stat )±0.59 (syst ) GeV , and 172.82 ±0.19 (stat )±1.22 (syst ) GeV , respectively. When combined with the published CMS results at √{s }=7 TeV , they provide a top quark mass measurement of 172.44 ±0.13 (stat )±0.47 (syst ) GeV . The top quark mass is also studied as a function of the event kinematical properties in the lepton+jets decay channel. No indications of a kinematic bias are observed and the collision data are consistent with a range of predictions from current theoretical models of t t ¯ production.
