alpha_s^3 conversion relation betweeen MS-bar and Euclidean quark masses

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We report on the analytical calculation of NNNLO (of order alpha_s^3) conversion factor between the MS-bar quark mass and the one defined in the so-called Regularization Invariant scheme. The NNNLO contribution in the conversion factor turns out to be relatively large and comparable to the known NNLO term.
