Description
The top quark mass is one of the fundamental parameters of the Standard Model. The
latest ATLAS measurements of the top quark mass are presented. A measurement using
lepton+jets events is presented, where a multidimensional
template fit is used to constrain
the uncertainties on the energy measurements of jets. The measurement is combined with
a measurement using dilepton events. In addition, novel measurements aiming to measure
the mass in a welldefined
scheme are presented. These measurements use precision
theoretical QCD calculations for both inclusive ttbar production and ttbar production with
an additional jet to extract the top quark mass in the polemass
scheme.
