The mass of the top quark is measured using a sample of t t-bar candidate events with one electron or muon and at least four jets in the final state, collected by CMS in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV at the LHC. A total of 5174 candidate…
We present a measurement of the top quark mass using a sample of t-tbar decays into an electron or a muon, a neutrino, and four jets. The data were collected in p-pbar collisions at sqrt(s)=1.8 TeV with the Collider Detector at Fermilab and…
Quark mass corrections to the tau hadronic width play a significant role only for the strange quark, hence providing a method for determining its mass. The experimental input is the vector plus axial-vector strange spectral function derived…
I describe a model for heavy meson decays based on an effective quark-meson lagrangian. I consider the heavy mesons S with spin and parity J^P=(1+,0+), H with J^P=(1-,0-) and T^mu with J^P=(2+,1+), i.e. S and P wave heavy-light mesons. The…
I consider a model for heavy meson decays based on an effective quark-meson Lagrangian. The model is constrained by the known symmetries of QCD in the m_Q -> infinity limit for the heavy quarks, and chiral symmetry in the light quark…
We measure the top quark mass m_t using t tbar pairs produced in the D0 detector by root(s) = 1.8 TeV p pbar collisions in a 125 pb^-1 exposure at the Fermilab Tevatron. We make a two constraint fit to m_t in t tbar --> b W^+ bbar W^- final…
We study the properties of heavy fermions in the vector-like representation of the electro-weak gauge group $SU(2)_W\times U(1)_Y$ with Yukawa couplings to the standard model Higgs boson. Applying the renormalization group analysis, we…
We present a fully non-perturbative computation of the mass of the b-quark in the quenched approximation. Our strategy starts from the matching of HQET to QCD in a finite volume and finally relates the quark mass to the spin averaged mass…
Weinberg sum-rules have been used in the past to successfully predict the electromagnetic contribution to the charged-pion mass as a function of the meson masses. Following the same approach we calculate in the minimal composite Higgs model…
We summarize the top-quark mass measurements from the CDF and D0 experiments at Fermilab. We combine published Run-I measurements with the most recent Run-II measurements. Taking correlated uncertainties into account the resulting…
The electroweak unification group $G\equiv SU(2)_L\times U(1)_e\times U(1)_\mu\times U(1)_\tau$ in which each fermion multiplet has its own $U(1)$ factor was proposed in 1986 to get the neutrino mass matrix. In this paper, the gauge group G…
We present two rather differently based predictions for the quark and lepton spectrum: One provides a rather successful fit to the mass suppressions---the well known fermion mass hierarchy---interpreted as due to most mass terms needing to…
We report our final estimate of the b-quark mass from $N_f=2$ lattice QCD simulations using Heavy Quark Effective Theory non-perturbatively matched to QCD at $O(1/m_h)$. Treating systematic and statistical errors in a conservative manner,…
We present a measurement of the top quark mass in ppbar collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. The data were collected by the D0 experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.7 fb-1.…
The predicted value of the higgs mass $m_H$ is analyzed assuming the existence of the fourth generation of leptons ($N, E$) and quarks ($U, D$). The steep and flat directions are found in the five-dimensional parameter space: $m_H$, $m_U$,…
We measure the top quark mass (mt) in ppbar collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV using dilepton ttbar->W+bW-bbar->l+nubl-nubarbbar events, where l denotes an electron, a muon, or a tau that decays leptonically. The data…
At a prospective e+e- Linear Collider (LC) a very precise determination of the top quark mass with an accuracy of $\delta m_t <= 100 MeV$ will be possible. This is to be compared with the envisaged accuracy of $\delta m_t = 1-2 GeV$ at the…
The radiatively generated Higgs mass is obtained by requiring that leading "divergences" are cancelled in both 2D and 4D. This predicts one or more viable modes; the k=1 mode mass is m_H\cong2/3 m_t\cong115GeV whereas the k=2 mode is…
We present an alternative framework to establish the neutrino mass scale from the Higgs mechanism in a minimalist approach, which does not introduce new scalar bosons or extend the symmetry group of the standard model (SM). A nonstandard…
