Scientific paper

We present a measurement of the top quark mass in pp collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV using tt events with two leptons (ee, eμ or μμ) in the final state. This analysis utilizes an integrated luminosity of 4.3 fb-1 collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. We employ a neutrino weighting technique to extract the top mass from 319 dilepton events. To reduce the dominant systematic uncertainties from jet energy calibration, we apply the jet energy corrections determined from a dijet invariant mass using W->jj decays in tt->l+jets events. We also apply corrections to jets in Monte Carlo events to replicate the flavor dependence of the jet response in data.
