Determination of the charm- and beauty-quark masses from QCD sum rules

Bibliography: pages 58-59. === Ratios of Laplace QCD sum rules are used in order to determine the on-shell charm- and beauty-quark masses. After confronting the experimental data in the charmonium and bottonium systems with theory, we obtain mc = 1.46 ± 0.07 GeV and mb = 4.70 ± 0.07 GeV. The error i...
