Standard model parameters and renormalization
I will present a scaling study of quenched quark masses obtained with a HEX-smeared improved Clover action. Renormalization is done in the RI-MOM scheme. I'm going to discuss specifics of the renormalization procedure and the continuum limit.

Standard model parameters and renormalization
The ETM collaboration has recently performed a determination of light, strange and charm quark masses.
The calculation has been performed using the twisted mass fermionic action at maximal twist, which is automatically O(a) improved, with two degenerate sea quarks. Four different lattice spacing and various volumes and quark masses have been analyzed.
In the talk I will review the values...

Standard model parameters and renormalization
The strong coupling constant and the charm quark mass are two fundamental parameters of the Standard Model.
The precision of their determination has been continuously improved in the past using both perturbative and
non-perturbative methods and most recently combinations thereof.
I report on a partially quenched investigation of charm current-current correlators using two flavours

Standard model parameters and renormalization
In this work, we report on the first direct lattice calculation of the strong isospin breaking parameter, m_d - m_u. To determine this standard model parameter, we compute the hadron spectrum for several values the lattice volume, the pion mass and the strong isospin breaking parameter, and then extrapolate these results to the known experimental spectrum. We must address various...
