The QCD up- and down-quark masses are determined from an optimized QCD Finite Energy Sum Rule (FESR) involving the correlator of axial-vector current divergences. In the QCD sector this correlator is known to five loop order in perturbative…
The light quark masses are determined using a new QCD Finite Energy Sum Rule (FESR) in the pseudoscalar channel. This FESR involves an integration kernel designed to reduce considerably the contribution of the (unmeasured) hadronic…
The strange quark mass is determined from a new QCD Finite Energy Sum Rule (FESR) optimized to reduce considerably the systematic uncertainties arising from the hadronic resonance sector. As a result, the main uncertainty in this…
The strange quark mass is determined from a QCD Finite Energy Sum Rule (FESR) optimized to reduce considerably the systematic uncertainties arising from the hadronic resonance sector, as well as from the poor convergence of the pseudoscalar…
Finite energy QCD sum rules involving both inverse and positive moment integration kernels are employed to determine the bottom quark mass. The result obtained in the $\bar{\text {MS}}$ scheme at a reference scale of $10\, {GeV}$ is…
It is argued that it is valid to use QCD sum rules to determine the scalar and pseudoscalar two-point functions at zero momentum, which in turn determine the ratio of the strange to non-strange quark condensates $R_{su} = \frac{<\bar{s}…
Recent progress on QCD sum rule determinations of the light and heavy quark masses is reported. In the light quark sector a major breakthrough has been made recently in connection with the historical systematic uncertainties due to a lack…
The running charm-quark mass in the $\bar{MS}$ scheme is determined from weighted finite energy QCD sum rules (FESR) involving the vector current correlator. Only the short distance expansion of this correlator is used, together with…
In this work the charm and bottom quark masses are determined from QCD moment sum rules for the charmonium and upsilon systems. To illustrate the special character of these sum rules when applied to Coulomb systems we first set up and study…
The standard procedure to determine (analytically) the values of the quark masses is to relate QCD two-point functions to experimental data in the framework of QCD sum rules. In the case of the light quark sector, the ideal Green function…
QCD sum rules involving mixed inverse moment integration kernels are used in order to determine the running charm-quark mass in the $\bar{MS}$ scheme. Both the high and the low energy expansion of the vector current correlator are involved…
A finite-energy sum-rule is presented that allows for the use of combinations of both positive- and inverse-moment integration kernels. The freedom afforded from being able to employ this large class of integration kernels in our sum-rule…
The next to leading order chiral corrections to the $SU(2)\times SU(2)$ Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner (GMOR) relation are obtained using the pseudoscalar correlator to five-loop order in perturbative QCD, together with new finite energy sum rules…
We present a calculation of the up, down, strange and charm quark masses performed within the lattice QCD framework. We use the twisted mass fermion action and carry out simulations that include in the sea two light mass-degenerate quarks,…
The strange quark mass is determined from a study of the correlator of the divergence of the strange vector current using a family of finite energy sum rules recently shown to be very accurately satisfied in the isovector vector channel. It…
We show that maximally twisted mass fermions can be employed to regularize on the lattice the fully unquenched QCD+QED theory with vanishing $\theta$-term. We discuss how the critical mass of the up and down quarks can be conveniently…
The bottom quark pole mass $M_b$ is determined using a sum rule which relates the masses and the electronic decay widths of the $\Upsilon$ mesons to large $n$ moments of the vacuum polarization function calculated from nonrelativistic…
The mass of the bottom quark is analyzed in the context of QCD finite energy sum rules. In contrast to the conventional approach, we use a large momentum expansion of the QCD correlator including terms to order \alpha…
This talks contains a short introduction to Chiral Perturbation Theory and the existing calculations to two-loop order in the mesonic sector. I include a discussion on which quantities the expansion can be organized in. The present best…
We determine the strange quark mass in the framework of finite energy sum rules from the vector current channel. The theoretical contributions are calculated in contour improved perturbation theory and a substantial difference to fixed…
