Existing lattice data on the QCD phase transition are analyzed in renormalized perturbation theory. In quenched QCD it is found that T_c scales for lattices with only 3 time slices, and that T_c/Lambda_msbar=1.15 \pm 0.05. A preliminary…
We compute the ratio $\Lambda_L/\Lambda_{\bar{MS}}$ between the scale parameter $\Lambda_L$, associated with a lattice formulation of QCD using the overlap-Dirac operator, and $\Lambda_{\bar{MS}}$ of the $\bar{\rm MS}$ renormalization…

The strong coupling constant alpha_s(mu_0), taken at a fixed reference scale mu_0, is the single free parameter of QCD and should be known to the highest available precision. The value of alpha_s should also be determined with good accuracy…

A renormalization scheme is suggested where QCD input parameters - quark mass and coupling constant - are expressed in terms of gauge invariant and infrared stable quantities. For the renormalization of coupling constant the quark anomalous…
Ordinary matter is described by six fundamental parameters: three couplings (gravitational, electromagnetic and strong) and three masses: the electron's (m_e) and those of the up (m_u) and down (m_d) quarks. An additional mass enters…
The correlator of heavy-quark currents is calculated in quenched Lattice QCD on a $16^3 \times 32$-lattice for $\beta= { 6, 6.3 }$. The renormalized charmed quark mass is extracted from the short-distance part of that correlator:…

Given a renormalization scheme of QCD, one can define a mass scale $\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$ in terms of the beta function. Under a change of the renormalization scheme, however, $\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$ changes by a multiplicative constant. We…
