NNLO Unquenched Calculation of the b Quark Mass
By combining the first unquenched lattice computation of the B-meson binding
energy and the two-loop contribution to the lattice HQET residual mass, we
determine the (\bar{{MS}}) (b)-quark mass, (\bar{m}_{b}(\bar{m}_{b})). The
inclusion of the two-loop corrections is essential to extract
(\bar{m}_{b}(\bar{m}_{b})) with a precision of ({\cal
O}(\Lambda^{2}_{QCD}/m_{b})), which is the uncertainty due to the renormalon
singularities in the perturbative series of the residual mass. Our best
estimate is (\bar{m}_{b}(\bar{m}_{b}) = (4.26 \pm 0.09) {\rm GeV}), where we
have combined the different errors in quadrature. A detailed discussion of the
systematic errors contributing to the final number is presented. Our results
have been obtained on a sample of (60) lattices of size (24^{3}\times 40) at
(\beta =5.6), using the Wilson action for light quarks and the lattice HQET for
the (b) quark, at two values of the sea quark masses. The quark propagators
have been computed using the unquenched links generated by the T(\chi)L
Collaboration.Comment: 19 pages, 1 figur
RI/MOM Renormalization Window and Goldstone Pole Contamination
We perform a comparative study of the ratio of lattice (Wilson fermion)
renormalization constants Z_P/Z_S, obtained non-perturbatively from the RI/MOM
renormalization conditions and from Ward Identities of on- and off-shell
Green's functions. The off-shell Ward Identity used in this work relies on
correlation functions with non-degenerate quark masses. We find that, due to
discretization effects, there is a 10-15% discrepancy between the two Ward
Identity determinations at current bare couplings (beta values). The RI/MOM
result is in the same range and has a similar systematic error of 10-15%. Thus,
contrary to a previous claim, the contamination of the RI/MOM result from the
presence of a Goldstone pole at scales of about 2 GeV is subdominant, compared
to finite cutoff effects.Comment: LATEX, 12 pages final version to appear on Phys. Lett.
Lattice quark masses: a non-perturbative measurement
We discuss the renormalization of different definitions of quark masses in
the Wilson and the tree-level improved SW-Clover fermionic action. For the
improved case we give the correct relationship between the quark mass and the
hopping parameter. Using perturbative and non-perturbative renormalization
constants, we extract quark masses in the \MSbar scheme from Lattice QCD in
the quenched approximation at , and for both
actions. We find: \bar{m}^{\MSbar}(2 GeV)=5.7 \pm 0.1 \pm 0.8 MeV,
m_s^{\MSbar}(2GeV)= 130 \pm 2 \pm 18 MeV and m_c^{\MSbar}(2 GeV) = 1662\pm
30\pm 230 MeV.Comment: 21 pages, 4 figures, typos corrected, no result change
Quark masses and the chiral condensate with a non-perturbative renormalization procedure
We determine the quark masses and the chiral condensate in the MSbar scheme
at NNLO from Lattice QCD in the quenched approximation at beta=6.0, beta=6.2
and beta=6.4 using both the Wilson and the tree-level improved SW-Clover
fermion action. We extract these quantities using the Vector and the Axial Ward
Identities and non-perturbative values of the renormalization constants. We
compare the results obtained with the two methods and we study the O(a)
dependence of the quark masses for both actions.Comment: LATTICE98(spectrum), 3 pages, 1 figure, Edinburgh 98/1
Non-perturbative Renormalization of the Complete Basis of Four-fermion Operators and B-parameters
We present results on the B-parameters , and , at
, with the tree-level Clover action. The renormalization of the
complete basis of dimension-six four-fermion operators has been performed
non-perturbatively. Our results for and are in reasonable
agreement with those obtained with the (unimproved) Wilson action. This is not
the case for . We also discuss some subtleties arising from a
recently proposed modified definition of the B-parameters.Comment: Talk presented at Lattice '97, Edinburgh (UK), July 1997. LaTeX 3

Thermal properties of metal-metal bonded Pd(I) complexes supported onto porous Vycor glass
Thermal behavior of the complexes Pd2(dppm)2Cl2, Pd2(dppm)2(SnCl3)Cl and Pd2(dppm)2(SnCl3)2 (dppm = bis[diphenylphosphino(methane)], ((C6H5)2PCH2P(C6H5)2) in the solid state and immobilized onto porous Vycor glass was studied. Similar decomposition mechanisms were observed for the solid and immobilized complexes, with a small thermal stabilization upon immobilization. The decomposition products were characterized by X-ray diffractometry, Raman and diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy, which indicated the presence of a mixture of metallic palladium and oxidized species such as PdO,condensed phosphates, SnO2 and SnP2O7. According to X-ray diffractometry, the decomposition products of the immobilized complexes presented higher amounts of PdO than the solid-state residues, probably as an effect of interactions with silanol groups present in the glass surface.Estudos dos complexos Pd2(dppm)2Cl2, Pd2(dppm)(SnCl3)Cl e Pd2(dppm)2(SnCl3) (dppm = bis[diphenylphosphino(methane)], (C6H5)2PCH2P(C6H5)2) por análise termogravimétrica (TG), no estado sólido e imobilizados no vidro poroso Vycor, são descritos. Os mecanismos de decomposição dos complexos no estado sólido e imobilizados no vidro poroso Vycor são similares e apenas uma ligeira estabilização é observada mediante a imobilização. Os produtos de decomposição foram caracterizados por difração de raios-X, espectroscopias Raman e de Refletância difusa no infravermelho, indicando a presença de uma mistura de paládio metálico e espécies oxidadas tais como PdO, fosfatos condensados, SnO2 e SnP2O7. Os produtos de decomposição dos complexos imobilizados no PVG apresentaram quantidades mais elevadas de PdO do que os resíduos no estado sólido, segundo a difração de raios-X, em virtude provavelmente da ocorrência de reações com grupamentos da superfície do vidro, bem como pelo fato de que as moléculas adsorvidas se encontram isoladas umas em relação às outras.263269Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP
