description The project concerns the study of the sensitivity in measuring the Top quark mass at threshold at the FCC-ee, using a Montecarlo analysis. In particular it has been developed within the FCC software framework, using a fast simulation. The work focused firstly on developing a b-tagging algorithm inside of the FCC fast simulation, managing to obtain results comparable with the ALEPH ones, and new results with a futuristic detector like ILD. Afterwards the selection of the tt events at energy close to the pair production threshold has been studied, obtaining a selection efficiency of 55 % and a background rejection at the level of 99.4 %. In the end, a list of points that can be achieved in the future, to complete the analysis, has been identified.
