Fundamental Building Blocks of Matter
• Top Quark ≅ Truth Quark(Fermilab, 1995)
• Mass ~ 175 GeV• Extraordinarily large!
• similar to a gold nucleus!
• ~40 times heavier than its partner- the bottom quark
• ~ 350, 000 times heavier
than electron!
• The Truth is heavy!

Supersymmetry
• One of the first and well motivated theories beyond the SM
• Pros:- Naturally cures the hierarchy problem
• Cons:- Doubles the number of elementary particles
• SUSY must be broken

Handling Systematics: Template Morphing
E.g. Jet Energy Scale (JES): Obtain JES +-1shifted templates by shifting JES upward and downward Include the shape transformation due to variation of JES into the fit Horizontal morphing is an interpolation between two cumulative
distribution functions (C.D.F.) The green C.D.F. curve is the 75% interpolation between the blue
and red C.D.F. curves.

Conclusion Remarks
• Top Mass discrepancy between different channels vanished with more data
• Stop admixture has not been an origin of earlier discrepancies
• Yet it remains a possibility based on theoretical arguments and might still remain hidden in Tevatron data
![Page 81: The Truth The Top Quark is Hiding](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062812/56816295550346895dd30a6d/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)

Summary
• Top quark remains to be mysterious particle
• No significant deviations from SM in measurements of the top quark properties have been observed
• Yet some potentially interesting effects remain
• The truth about Nature might still be hiding in the top quark/Tevatron data
• With more Tevatron data the chance for discovery remains a possibility
