Resolution-dependent quark masses from meson correlators

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-11-07 v2 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We explore the impact of a resolution-dependent constituent quark mass, as recently applied to diffractive meson production, in QCD correlation functions of several spin-0 and spin-1 meson channels. We compare the resulting correlators with experimental and lattice data, analyze the virtues and limitations of the approach, and discuss the channel dependence of the obtained effective quark masses.
