Description

We summarize the reconstruction of the top mass in the all hadronic channel, where both W's decay into a qqbar pair, using the CDF detector at the Tevatron. The mass extraction is based on an event-by-event likelihood technique known as the Ideogram method. The analysis is performed on signal and background MC samples, showing its sensitivity to the top quark mass and its statistical performance.
