Non-perturbatively renormalised light quark masses from a lattice simulation with N(f) = 2
We present results for the light quark masses obtained from a lattice QCD simulation with N-f = 2 degenerate Wilson dynamical quark flavours. The sea quark masses of our lattice, of spacing a similar or equal to 0.06 fm, are relatively heavy, i.e., they cover the range corresponding to 0.60 less than or similar to M-p/M-V less than or similar to 0.75. After implementing the non-perturbative RI-MOM method to renormalise quark masses, we obtain m(ud)((MS) over bar)(2 GeV)= 4.3 +/- 0.4(-0)(+1.1) MeV, and m(s)((MS) over bar)(2 GeV) = 101 +/- 8(-0)(+25) MeV, which are about 15% larger than they would be if renormalised perturbatively. In addition, we show that the above results are compatible wi…
D-0 - (D)over-bar(0) mixing in the standard model and beyond from N-f=2 twisted mass QCD
We present the first unquenched lattice QCD results for the bag parameters controlling the short distance contribution to D meson oscillations in the standard model and beyond. We have used the gauge configurations produced by the European Twisted Mass collaboration with N-f = 2 dynamical quarks, at four lattice spacings and light meson masses in the range 280-500 MeV. Renormalization is carried out nonperturbatively with the regularization-independent momentum subtraction method. The bag-parameter results have been used to constrain new physics effects in D-0 ¿ (D) over bar (0) mixing, to put a lower bound to the generic new physics scale and to constrain off-diagonal squark mass terms for…
Up, down, strange and charm quark masses with N-f=2+1+1 twisted mass lattice QCD
We present a lattice QCD calculation of the up, down, strange and charm quark masses performed using the gauge configurations produced by the European Twisted Mass Collaboration with N-f = 2 + 1 + 1 dynamical quarks, which include in the sea, besides two light mass degenerate quarks, also the strange and charm quarks with masses close to their physical values. The simulations are based on a unitary setup for the two light quarks and on a mixed action approach for the strange and charm quarks. The analysis uses data at three values of the lattice spacing and pion masses in the range 210-450 MeV, allowing for accurate continuum limit and controlled chiral extrapolation. The quark mass renorma…
