Bottom and Charm quark masses from lattice NRQCD

Abstract

We present new values for the MSˉ\bar{MS} masses of bb and cc quarks based on lattice NRQCD simulations of the Υ(bbˉ)\Upsilon (b\bar{b}) and ψ(ccˉ)\psi (c\bar{c}) systems. These include three measurements of the bb mass based on quenched simulations with lattice spacings ranging from 0.05fm to 0.15fm, which we find to be largely independent of lattice spacing. In addition, we find a consistent value from an unquenched simulation at 0.08fm.
