Recent results from studies using half the perturbative mass of heavy quark-antiquark n=1, ${}^3S_1$ quarkonium as a new heavy quark mass definition for problems where the characteristic scale is smaller than or of the same order as the…
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:…
At one loop, quantum kinks are described by a free theory. The nonlinearity and so the interesting phenomenology arrives at two loops, where, for example, internal excitations couple to continuum excitations. We calculate the two-loop mass…
The precise data for the total cross section $\sigma(e^+e^-\to{hadrons})$ from the charm threshold region, when combined with the evaluation of moments with three loop accuracy, lead to a direct determination of the short distance $\bar{\rm…
The top quark decays more quickly than the strong-interaction time scale, $\lqcd^{-1}$, and might be expected to escape the effects of nonperturbative QCD. Nevertheless, the top-quark pole mass, like the mass of a stable heavy quark, is…
In a series of three lectures, I review the theory and phenomenology of heavy quark masses and mixing angles and the status of their determination. In addition, I give an introduction to heavy quark symmetry, with the main emphasis on the…
Using the recent {\it world average} $\alpha_s(M^2_Z)= 0.118 \pm 0.006$, we give the {\it first direct extraction} from the $\Psi$ and $\Upsilon$ data of the values of the {\it running heavy quark masses} within QCD spectral sum rules to…
In the paper, we study the properties of the top-quark $\overline{\rm MS}$ running mass computed from its on-shell mass by using both the four-loop $\overline{\rm MS}$-on-shell relation and the principle of maximum conformality (PMC)…
Recent calculations of heavy quark cross sections near threshold at next-to-next-to-leading order have found second-order corrections as large as first-order ones. We analyse long-distance contributions to the heavy quark potential in…
A physically defined effective charge can incorporate quark masses analytically at the flavor thresholds. Therefore, no matching conditions are required for the evolution of the strong coupling constant through these thresholds. In this…
We determine to order alpha^3 the so-called residual mass in the lattice regularisation of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory for Nf=2. Our (gauge-invariant) strategy makes use of Numerical Stochastic Perturbation Theory to compute the static…
The heavy-quark mass and wave function renormalizations, energy shift, and radiative corrections to two important couplings, the so-called kinetic couplings, in nonrelativistic lattice QCD are determined to leading order in tadpole-improved…
For top quark decays into heavy quark mesons $\Upsilon$ and $\bar{B}_c^*$ , a complete calculation to the leading order both in QCD coupling constant $\alpha_s$ and in $v$, the typical velocity of the heavy quarks inside the mesons, is…
We compute the two-mass contributions to the polarized massive operator matrix element $A_{gg,Q}^{(3)}$ at third order in the strong coupling constant $\alpha_s$ in Quantum Chromodynamics analytically. These corrections are important…
We obtain an improved determination of the normalization constant of the first infrared renormalon of the pole mass (and the singlet static potential). For $N_f=3$ it reads $N_m=0.563(26)$. Charm quark effects in the bottom quark mass…
In this paper we compare recent experimental data for the total cross section $\sigma(e^+e^-\to{hadrons})$ with the up-to-date theoretical prediction of perturbative QCD for those energies where perturbation theory is reliable. The…
New data for the total cross section sigma(e^+e^- --> hadrons) in the charm and bottom threshold region are combined with an improved theoretical analysis, which includes recent four-loop calculations, to determine the short distance…
The inclusive cross section for top-quark pair production measured by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV is compared to the QCD prediction at next-to-next-to-leading order with various parton…
We determine the charm and strange quark masses in the $\overline{\text{MS}}$ scheme, using $n_f=2+1+1$ lattice QCD calculations with highly improved staggered quarks (HISQ) and the RI-SMOM intermediate scheme to connect the bare lattice…
We compute the three-loop relation between the pole and the minimally subtracted quark mass allowing for virtual effects from a second massive quark. We also consider the analogue effects for the on-shell wave function renormalization…
