„ PARTON SHOWERS AND RESUMMATION FOR
BOTTOM FRAGMENTATION IN TOP DECAYS“
Abstract:
For the sake of performing precise measurements of the top-quark properties,
such as its mass, a reliable description of bottom-quark fragmentation in top
decays is fundamental.
I will discuss the available tools to address b-fragmentation in top decays, namely
resummed calculations, based on the perturbative-fragmentation formalism, and
parton-shower simulations. The inclusion of non-perturbative corrections will also
be debated and the impact on the uncertainty on the top-mass reconstruction in
a few analyses will be investigated as well.
