Using recently evaluated contributions (including a novel one calculated here), we present updated values for the pole mass and $\bar{MS}$ mass of the $b$ quark: $m_b=5022\pm58$ MeV, for the pole mass, and $\bar{m}_b(\bar{m}_b)=4286\pm36$…

The mass of the bottom quark and the strong coupling constant alpha_s are determined from QCD moment sum rules for the Upsilon system. Two analyses are performed using both the pole mass M_b as well as the mass m_b in the $\MSb$ scheme. In…

We discuss a model for heavy mesons where the light quark (u or d) moves in the colour electric field from a heavy quark (c or b) placed in the center of the bag. We calculate energy spectra for pionic and photonic transitions from excited…

We present a systematic study of the effectiveness of light quark mass reweighting. This method allows a single lattice QCD ensemble, generated with a specific value of the dynamical light quark mass, to be used to determine results for…

The nonlocal version of the SU(2)xSU(2) symmetric four-quark interaction of the NJL type is considered. Each of the quark lines contains the form factors. These form factors remove the ultraviolet divergences in quark loops. The additional…

We demonstrate that mass inequalities for hadrons with one or more heavy quarks arise primarily from the concavity of binding energies in the quark model, reflecting short-range Coulombic interactions and long-range confinement. Empirical…

Using a quite accurate flavour-independence of $nS$-level mass differences in heavy quarkonia and a corresponding quasiclassical expression for the heavy quark binding energy, one shows that experimental data on masses of mesons with heavy…

The study of heavy-light meson masses should provide a way to determine renormalized quark masses and other properties of heavy-light mesons. In the context of lattice QCD, for example, it is possible to calculate hadronic quantities for…

We investigate the formation of light nuclei with the nuclear mass number less than or equal to four in 2+1 flavor QCD using a non-perturbative improved Wilson quark and Iwasaki gauge actions. The quark mass is decreased from our previous…

We present results for f_B and masses of low-lying heavy-light mesons. Calculations were performed in the quenched approximation using multistate smearing functions generated from a spinless relativistic quark model Hamiltonian. Beta values…

A standing mystery in the Standard Model is the unnatural smallness of the strong CP violating phase. A massless up quark has long been proposed as one potential solution. A lattice calculation of the constants of the chiral Lagrangian…

The perturbative quark mass corrections to the tau hadronic width are studied to O(alpha_s^3 m_q^2). Including up to dimension four corrections, we get m_s(4 GeV^2)=(143 \pm 42) MeV [m_s(1 GeV^2)=(193 \pm 59) MeV ]. Possible improvements to…

We study the light and heavy quark mass dependence of the low-lying charmed mesons in the framework of one-loop HH$\chi$PT. The low energy constants are determined by analyzing the available lattice data from different LQCD simulations.…

We present a new chiral quark model for mesons involving a heavy and a light (anti-) quark. The model relates various combinations of a quark - meson coupling constant and loop integrals to physical quantities. Then, some quantities may be…

We present a calculation of the \beta-term for D^* --> D gamma within a heavy-light chiral quark model. Within the model, soft gluon effects in terms of the gluon condensate with lowest dimension are included. Also, calculations of 1/m_c…

We describe an independent method for determining the strong-isospin breaking mass parameter, 2delta = m_d - m_u, which utilizes the baryon spectrum. We use a prudent partially quenched choice of splitting the valence quark masses…

I discuss old and new determinations of the light quark masses using lattice QCD. Most lattice results using various approximations can be fit together in a simple picture which is consistent with lower values than conventionally supposed:…

Heavy-light bound states are studied in Lattice QCD with emphasis on parameters of the B-system relevant to experiment. Results are obtained on lattices with lattice spacings from about 0.15 fm to 0.06 fm corresponding to $\beta=5.74, 6.0$…

The relation between the central mass and quasar luminosity (M_BH \propto L^{\alpha}FHWM^2) links a given Eddington ratio with a value of H_0, within a cosmology with fixed (\Omega_m,\Omega_{\Lambda}). We point out that because the relation…

A limit on the mass of the tau neutrino is derived from 4.5 million tau pairs produced in an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb^{-1} of electron-positron annihilation to tau pairs at center of mass energies near 10.6 GeV. The measurement…
