Abstract

We compute the nonperturbative quark mass RG-running in the range ΛQCDμMW\Lambda_{QCD}\lessapprox\mu\lessapprox M_W for Nf=3N_f=3 massless QCD with a mixed action approach: sea quarks are regularised using nonperturbatively O(a)O(a)-improved Wilson fermions with Schr\"odinger functional (SF) boundary conditions, employing the configurations of 1802.05243, while valence quarks are regularised using nonperturbatively O(a)O(a)-improved Wilson fermions with chirally rotated Schr\"odinger functional boundary conditions (χ\chiSF). Our result is compatible with its SF counterpart of ref.1802.05243, confirming the universality of χ\chiSF and SF in the continuum limit. We also establish the optimal tuning strategy for the critical hopping parameter κc\kappa_c and the χ\chiSF boundary counterterm coefficient zfz_{\rm f}. We work in two energy regimes with two different definitions of the coupling: SF-coupling for 2 GeV μMW\lessapprox\mu\lessapprox M_W and GF-coupling for ΛQCDμ2GeV\Lambda_{QCD} \lessapprox\mu\lessapprox 2 GeV.
