Abstract

Extra soft jets in top events in p p collisions may arise not only from gluons radiated off initial state partons or final state b quarks, but may also be radiated from the t quarks themselves. We discuss predictions for distributions of soft gluons in t t production at the Tevatron and the implications for attempts to measure the top mass by reconstructing the invariant mass of its decay products.
