Top-Quark Pair Production Cross Sections and Calibration of the Top-Quark Monte-Carlo Mass Measurements Performed with the CMS Detector Using LHC Run I Proton-Proton Collision Data /

This thesis presents the first experimental calibration of the top-quark Monte-Carlo mass. It also provides the top-quark mass-independent and most precise top-quark pair production cross-section measurement to date. The most precise measurements of the top-quark mass obtain the top-quark mass param...
