We reanalyze the perturbative QCD (pQCD) corrections to quarkonium QCD sum rules and extract the heavy quark masses $\overline{m}_{q}(\overline{m}_{q})$ ($q=c,b$). At present, the pQCD corrections to the correlation functions of two…
A short-distance heavy quark mass depends on two parameters, the renormalization scale mu controlling the absorption of ultraviolet fluctuations into the mass, and a scale R controlling the absorption of infrared fluctuations. 1/R can be…

Reaching a theoretical accuracy in the prediction of the lightest MSSM Higgs-boson mass, M_h, at the level of the current experimental precision requires the inclusion of momentum-dependent contributions at the two-loop level. Recently two…
The bottom quark 1S mass, $M_b^{1S}$, is determined using sum rules which relate the masses and the electronic decay widths of the $\Upsilon$ mesons to moments of the vacuum polarization function. The 1S mass is defined as half the…
