Abstract
We present three measurements of the top-quark mass in the lepton plus jets channel with approximately of integrated luminosity collected with the CDF II detector using quantities with minimal dependence on the jet energy scale. One measurement exploits the transverse decay length of -tagged jets to determine a top-quark mass of , and another the transverse momentum of electrons and muons from -boson decays to determine a top-quark mass of . These quantities are combined in a third, simultaneous mass measurement to determine a top-quark mass of .
