We present new data on the mass of the light and strange quarks from SESAM/T$\chi$L. The results were obtained on lattice-volumes of $16^3\times 32$ and $24^3\times 40$ points, with the possibility to investigate finite-size effects. Since…

Using the O(a) Symanzik improved action an estimate is given for the strange quark mass for unquenched (nf=2) QCD. The determination is via the axial Ward identity (AWI) and includes a non-perturbative evaluation of the renormalisation…
