abstract = {We generalize and update our former top quark mass
calibration framework for Monte Carlo (MC) event generators
based on the $e^+e^-$ hadron-level 2-jettiness $\tau_2$
distribution in the resonance region for boosted $t\bar t$
production, that was used to relate the PYTHIA 8.205 top
mass parameter $m_t^{\rm MC}$ to the MSR mass $m_t^{\rm
MSR}(R)$ and the pole mass $m_t^{\rm pole}$. The current
most precise direct top mass measurements specifically
determine $m_t^{\rm MC}$. The updated framework includes the
addition of the shape variables sum of jet masses $\tau_s$
and modified jet mass $\tau_m$, and the treatment of two
more gap subtraction schemes to remove the ${\cal
O}(\Lambda_{\rm QCD})$ renormalon related to large-angle
soft radiation. These generalizations entail implementing a
more versatile shape-function fit procedure and accounting
for a certain type of $(m_t/Q)^2$ power corrections to
achieve gap-scheme and observable independent results. The
theoretical description employs boosted heavy-quark
effective theory (bHQET) at next-to-next-to-logarithmic
order (N$^2$LL), matched to soft-collinear effective theory
(SCET) at N$^2$LL and full QCD at next-to-leading order
(NLO), and includes the dominant top width effects.
Furthermore, the software framework has been modernized to
use standard file and event record formats. We update the
top mass calibration results by applying the new framework
to PYTHIA 8.205, HERWIG 7.2 and SHERPA 2.2.11. Even though
the hadron-level resonance positions produced by the three
generators differ significantly for the same top mass
parameter $m_t^{\rm MC}$ value, the calibration shows that
these differences arise from the hadronization modeling.
Indeed, we find that $m_t^{\rm MC}$ agrees with $m_t^{\rm
MSR}(1\,\mbox{GeV})$ within $200$ MeV for the three
generators and differs from the pole mass by $350$ to $600$
MeV.},
