Abstract

For the first time, we compute non-perturbatively, i.e. without lattice perturbation theory, the renormalization constants of two-fermion operators in the quenched approximation at β=6.0\beta=6.0, 6.2 and 6.4 using the Wilson and the tree-level improved SW-Clover actions. We apply these renormalization constants to fully non-perturbatively estimate quark masses in the MSˉ\bar{MS} scheme from lattice simulations of both the hadron spectrum and the Axial Ward Identity in the quenched approximation. Some very preliminary unquenched Wilson results obtained from the gluon configurations generated by the Tχ\chiL Collaboration at β=5.6\beta=5.6 and Nf=2N_{f}=2 are also discussed.
