Abstract: A combination of fifteen top quark mass measurements performed by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC is presented. The data sets used correspond to an integrated luminosity of up to 5 and 20 fb$ ^{-1} $ of proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, respectively. The combination includes measurements in top quark pair events that exploit both the semileptonic and hadronic decays of the top quark, and a measurement using events enriched in single top quark production via the electroweak $ t $-channel. The combination accounts for the correlations between measurements and achieves an improvement in the total uncertainty of 31% relative to the most precise input measurement. The result is $ m_{\mathrm{t}} = $ 172.52 $ \pm $ 0.14 (stat) $ \pm $ 0.30 (syst) GeV, with a total uncertainty of 0.33 GeV. | ||

Also shown are the separate combinations of each experiment and the result of the simultaneous combination for the different decay channels, where the ``other'' category covers the single top, J$ /\psi $, and secondary vertex measurements. |

Figure 2:
The simultaneous extraction of the $ m_{\mathrm{t}} $ measured by ATLAS ($ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{ATLAS} $) and CMS ($ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{CMS} $) from a BLUE combination of the 15 input measurements is shown by the star. The solid ellipses show the regions allowed at 68 and 95% confidence level (CL) by the combination and are in good agreement with the expectation $ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{ATLAS}=m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{CMS} $ (shown by the black dashed line). The observed correlation between $ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{ATLAS} $ and $ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{CMS} $ is 0.15. The blue and red lines and bands show the central values and 68% CL intervals for the individual ATLAS and CMS combinations, which use the 6 ATLAS and 9 CMS measurements, respectively. In addition, the central value of the LHC combination, $ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{LHC} $, which assumes $ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{LHC}=m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{ATLAS}=m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{CMS} $, is shown by the circular marker. The projection of the corresponding diagonal error bar on either axis represents the total uncertainty $ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{LHC} $. |

Table 1:
Correlation strengths $ \rho $ of the systematic uncertainty categories between ATLAS and CMS, as used in the combination. The categories are defined in the text. Categories indicated with the symbol $ \text{---} $ in the second column correspond to uncertainties specific to a single experiment. The third column shows the range of $ \rho $ scanned for stability checks. The changes in the combination's central value $ m_{\mathrm{t}} $ and uncertainty $ \sigma_{m_{\mathrm{t}}} $ corresponding to each correlation variation are shown in the last two columns. |

BLUE weights of the simultaneous ATLAS and CMS combination for each input measurement. The input measurements are the ATLAS and CMS 7 and 8 TeV $ m_{\mathrm{t}} $ measurements in the dilepton (``dil''), lepton+jets (``lj''), and all-jets (``aj'') channels, and the CMS 8 TeV $ m_{\mathrm{t}} $ measurements in the single top (``t''), secondary vertex (``vtx''), and J$ /\psi $ analysis (``J$ /\psi $''). The sum of the ATLAS weights in the CMS combined value is zero, and vice versa. The individual weights, however, are different from zero due to the correlation between the different experiments. The weights are rounded to two decimal places; when the full precision is used, the weights for each of $ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{ATLAS} $ and $ m_{\mathrm{t}}^\text{CMS} $ sum to one. |

The pull for measurement $ i $ is defined as $ (m_i - m_c)/\sqrt{\smash[b]{\sigma_i^2 - \sigma_c^2}} $, where $ m_i $ ($ \sigma_i $) is the central value (uncertainty) of the measurement and $ m_c $ ($ \sigma_c $) is the central value (uncertainty) of the LHC combination. The weights are rounded to two decimal places; when the full precision is used, the weights sum to one. |
