By using a single formalism to handle charm, strange, and light valence quarks in full lattice QCD for the first time, we are able to determine ratios of quark masses to 1%. For m(c)/m(s) we obtain 11.85(16), an order of magnitude more precise than the current PDG average. Combined with 1% determinations of the charm quark mass now possible this gives m(s)(2 GeV)=92.4(1.5) MeV. The MILC result for m(s)/m(l)=27.2(3) yields m(l)(2 GeV)=3.40(7) MeV for the average of u and d quark masses.
通过首次在全格点 QCD 中使用单一形式来处理魅夸克、奇夸克和轻价夸克,我们能够将夸克质量的比值精确到 1%。对于 m(c)/m(s),我们得到 11.85(16),比当前 PDG 平均值精确一个数量级。与目前可能的 1%的魅夸克质量测定相结合,这给出了 m(s)(2 GeV)=92.4(1.5) MeV。MILC 对 m(s)/m(l)=27.2(3)的结果给出了 u 和 d 夸克质量平均值的 m(l)(2 GeV)=3.40(7) MeV。
