Alternative methods for top-quark mass determination at the Tevatron and LHC

Abstract

I am summarizing here the determination of the top-quark mass from the CDF and D0 Collaborations at the Tevatron and the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations at the LHC using non-conventional methods. I am concentrating on the extraction of the top-quark mass from the top-antitop cross-section, on the mass measurement using the so-called endpoint method and on the top-quark mass determination from the b-lifetime. Other alternative methods are described in another articleComment: proceedings for the 6th international workshop on top quark physics (Top2013, Durbach, Germany), 10 pages, 7 figure
