A likelihood-based reconstruction algorithm for top-quark pairs and the KLFitter framework

A likelihood-based reconstruction algorithm for arbitrary event topologies is introduced and, as an example, applied to the single-lepton decay mode of top-quark pair production. The algorithm comes with several options which further improve its performance, in particular the reconstruction efficien...
