We present a lattice determination of the charm quark's mass, using the mass of the D_s meson as experimental input. All errors are under control with the exception of the quenched approximation. Setting the scale with F_K=160 MeV, our…

We determine the renormalization group invariant quark mass corresponding to the sum of the strange and the average light quark mass in the quenched approximation of QCD, using as essential input the mass of the K-mesons. In the continuum…
The charm quark's mass is determined from Monte Carlo calculations of the $\bar{c}c$ spectrum. The main sources of uncertainty are perturbation theory (for conversion to $\MSbar$), the continuum-limit extrapolation, Monte Carlo statistics,…
