dc.description.abstract A simultaneous measurement of the top-quark, W-boson, and neutrino masses is reported for t (t) over bar events selected in the dilepton final state from a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb(-1) collected by the CMS experiment in pp collisions at root s = 7 TeV. The analysis is based on endpoint determinations in kinematic distributions. When the neutrino and W-boson masses are constrained to their world-average values, a top-quark mass value of M-t = 173.9 +/- 0.9 (stat.)=(+ 1.7)(-2.1) (syst.) GeV is obtained. When such constraints are not used, the three particle masses are obtained in a simultaneous fit. In this unconstrained mode the study serves as a test of mass determination methods that may be used in beyond standard model physics scenarios where several masses in a decay chain may be unknown and undetected particles lead to underconstrained kinematics. en_US
dc.description.sponsorship We congratulate our colleagues in the CERN accelerator departments for the excellent performance of the LHC and thank the technical and administrative staffs at CERN and at other CMS institutes for their contributions to the success of the CMS effort. In addition, we gratefully acknowledge the computing centres and personnel of the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid for delivering so effectively the computing infrastructure essential to our analyses.
