Description
I talk on the status on the theoretical interpretation of the top quark mass parameter in Monte Carlo event generators. This issue affects how the direct top quark mass measurements are related to field theory top quark mass measurements, and particular scrutiny has to be applied to theory and Monte Carlo event generators alike to match the experimental future prospects for direct mass measurements at the LHC. This field of research is just emerging and I explain subtleties and the tasks that lie ahead.
