Light Quark Mass Determinations from the Lattice

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-30 v2 High Energy Physics - Lattice

Abstract

This paper is a review of recent lattice determinations of the light quark masses. It describes the method employed to calculate quark masses in the lattice formulation, and the extrapolations required to reach the physical regime. This review is designed to be accessible to a general audience, not specifically lattice theorists.
