We determine the bottom $\bar{\rm MS}$ quark mass $\bar{m}_b$ and the quark mass in the potential subtraction scheme from moments of the $b\bar{b}$ production cross section and from the mass of the Upsilon 1S state at…
We determine the mass of the bottom quark from high moments of the bottom production cross section in e+ e- annihilation, which are dominated by the threshold region. On the theory side next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (NNNLO)…
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 compute the two-loop term in the perturbation series for the quark-mass in the lattice Heavy Quark Effective Theory. This is an ingredient in the matching factor required to obtain the $b$-quark mass from lattice simulations of the HQET.…
The mass of the bottom quark can be determined with high precision from moments of the pair-production cross section sigma(e+ e- -> b bbar) near threshold. We present the first complete NNNLO determination from non-relativistic sum rules,…
New data for the total cross section $\sigma(e^+e^-\to{hadrons})$ 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…
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…
We use the ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^3)$ approximation of the heavy-quark vacuum polarization function in the threshold region to determine the bottom quark mass from nonrelativistic $\Upsilon$ sum rules. We find very good stability and…
We study the uncertainties in the MSbar bottom quark mass determination using relativistic sum rules to O(alpha_S^2). We include charm mass effects and secondary b bbar production and treat the experimental continuum region more…
We determine the bottom quark mass $\hat{m}_b$ from QCD sum rules of moments of the vector current correlator calculated in perturbative QCD to ${\cal O} (\hat\alpha_s^3)$. Our approach is based on the mutual consistency across a set of…
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…
The effects of the finite charm quark mass on bottom quark mass determinations from $\Upsilon$ sum rules are examined in detail. The charm quark mass effects are calculated at next-to-next-to-leading order in the non-relativistic power…
The talk presents an update of the bottom quark mass determination from QCD moment sum rules for the Upsilon system by the authors. Employing the MS_bar scheme, we find m_b(m_b) = 4.19 +- 0.06 GeV. The differences to our previous analysis…
Using a new result for the first moment of the hadronic production cross section at order ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^3)$, and new data on the $J/\psi$ and $\psi'$ resonances for the charm quark, we determine the \msb masses of the charm and bottom…
The bottom quark 1S mass, $M_b^{1S}$, is determined using sum rules which relate the masses and the electronic decay widths of the $\Upsilon$ mesons to moments of the vacuum polarization function. The 1S mass is defined as half the…

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 present a consistent analysis of $\Upsilon$ sum rules and $B$-meson semileptonic width in the next-to-next-to-leading order in the strong coupling constant. The analysis is based on the analytical result for the heavy quark vector…
The b quark low-scale running mass m_kin is determined from an analysis of the Upsilon sum rules in the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO). It is demonstrated that using this mass one can significantly improve the convergence of the…
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-…
