We estimate the presently unknown constant in the 4-loop relation between the quark pole mass and the MSbar mass, by requiring stability of the perturbative prediction for E_tot(r)=2m_pole+V_QCD(r) in the intermediate-distance region. The…
We update our perturbative determination of MSbar bottom quark mass mb(mb), by including the recently obtained four-loop coefficient in the relation between the pole and MSbar mass. First the renormalon subtracted (RS or RS') mass is…
Precision determinations of the top-quark mass require theory predictions with a well-defined mass parameter in a given renormalization scheme. The top-quark's running mass in the MSbar scheme can be extracted with good precision from the…
We approximately compute the normalization constant of the first infrared renormalon of the pole mass (and the singlet static potential). Estimates of higher order terms in the perturbative relation between the pole mass and the $\MS$ mass…
The heavy quark pole mass in perturbation theory suffers from a renormalon caused, inherent uncertainty of $O(\Lambda_{\rm QCD})$. This fundamental difficulty of determining the pole mass to an accuracy better than the inherent uncertainty…
We study the spectra of the bottomonium and B_c states within perturbative QCD up to order alpha_s^4. The O(Lambda_QCD) renormalon cancellation between the static potential and the pole mass is performed in the epsilon-expansion scheme. We…
We construct hyperasymptotic expansions for the heavy quark pole mass regulated using the principal value (PV) prescription. We apply such hyperasymptotic expansions to the $B/D$ meson masses, and $\bar \Lambda $ computed in the lattice.…
The Principle of Maximum Conformality (PMC) provides a systematic way to eliminate the renormalization scheme and renormalization scale uncertainties for high-energy processes. We have observed that by applying PMC scale-setting, one…
The asymptotic structure of the QCD perturbative relation between the on-shell and $\overline{\rm{MS}}$ heavy quark masses is studied. We estimate the five and six-loop contributions to this relation by three different techniques. First,…
The effective charges motivated method is applied to the relation between pole and $\rm{\overline{MS}}$-scheme heavy quark masses to study high order perturbative QCD corrections in the observable quantities proportional to the running…
The MSbar charm quark mass is determined to be m_c(m_c)=1224+-17+-54 MeV from a global fit to inclusive B meson decay data, where the first error is experimental, and includes the uncertainty in alpha_s, and the second is an estimate of…
We present the first direct determination of the running top-quark mass based on the total cross section of top-quark pair-production as measured at the Tevatron. Our theory prediction for the cross section includes various…
In this paper, we explore the properties of the bottom-quark on-shell mass ($M_b$) by using its relation to the $\overline{\rm MS}$ mass (${\overline m}_b$). At present, this $\overline{\rm MS}$-on-shell relation has been known up to…
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…
We present new determinations of the MS-bar charm quark mass using relativistic QCD sum rules at O(alpha_s^3) from the moments of the vector and the pseudoscalar current correlators. We use available experimental measurements from e+e-…
We provide a systematic renormalization group formalism for the mass effects in the relation of the pole mass $m_Q^{\rm pole}$ and short-distance masses such as the $\overline{\rm MS}$ mass $\overline{m}_Q$ of a heavy quark $Q$, coming from…
We compute the relation between the pole mass and the kinetic mass of a heavy quark to three loops. Using the known relation between the pole and the $\overline{\rm MS}$ mass we obtain precise conversion relations between the $\overline{\rm…
In this contribution we discuss the four-loop relation between the on-shell and $\bar{\rm MS}$ definition of heavy quark masses which is applied to the top, bottom and charm case. We also present relations between the $\bar{\rm MS}$ quark…
The key quantity of the heavy quark theory is the quark mass $m_Q$. Since quarks are unobservable one can suggest different definitions of $m_Q$. One of the most popular choices is the pole quark mass routinely used in perturbative…
Using the non-relativistic version of Borel sum rules, combined to the very accurate experimental information on the Charmonium and Upsilon spectra, we rigorously investigate the Euclidean mass of the Charm and Bottom quark. Our analysis is…
