Non-perturbative renormalisation and improvement of non-singlet tensor currents in $N_\mathrm{f}=3$ QCD

Hadronic matrix elements involving tensor currents play an important r\^ole in decays that allow to probe the consistency of the Standard Model via precision lattice QCD calculations. The non-singlet tensor current is a scale-dependent (anomalous) quantity. We fully resolve its renormalisation group (RG) running in the continuum by carrying out a recursive finite-size scaling technique. In this way ambiguities due to a perturbative RG running and matching to lattice data at low energies are eliminated. We provide the total renormalisation factor at a hadronic scale of 233 MeV, which converts the bare current into its RG-invariant form. Our calculation features three flavours of O(a) improved Wilson fermions and tree-level Symanzik-improved gauge action. We employ the (massless) Schr\"odinger functional renormalisation scheme throughout and present the first non-perturbative determination of the Symanzik counterterm $c_\mathrm{T}$ derived from an axial Ward identity. We elaborate on various details of our calculations, including two different renormalisation conditions.

Charm physics with a tmQCD mixed action

We report on our ongoing determination of the charm quark mass and the masses and decay constants of various charmed mesons, obtained within a mixed-action setup. We employ $N_f=2+1$ CLS ensembles combined with a Wilson twisted mass valence action that eliminates the leading $O(a)$ effects from our target observables. Alongside our preliminary results, we will discuss an exploration of GEVP techniques aimed at optimizing the precision in view of the extension of the computation to heavier quark masses. We study the chiral-continuum extrapolation of decay constants for charm quark observables and the renormalized charm quark mass.

Light and strange quark masses from $N_f=2+1$ simulations with Wilson fermions

We present a nearly final analysis of the $u/d$ and $s$ quark masses, extracted using the PCAC quark masses reported in [PRD 95 (2017) 074504]. The data is based on the CLS $N_f = 2 + 1$ simulations with Wilson/Clover quarks and Lüscher-Weisz gauge action, at four $β$ values (i.e. lattice spacings) and a range of quark masses. We use the ALPHA results of [EPJC 78 (2018) 387] for non-perturbative quark mass renormalisation and RG-running from hadronic to electroweak scales in the Schrödinger Functional scheme. Quark masses are quoted both in the $\overline{\rm MS}$ scheme and as RGI quantities.

Prospects and status of quark mass renormalization in three-flavour QCD

We present the current status of a revised strategy to compute the running of renormalized quark masses in QCD with three flavours of massless O(a) improved Wilson quarks. The strategy employed uses the standard finite-size scaling method in the Schrödinger functional and accommodates for the non-perturbative scheme-switch which becomes necessary at intermediate renormalized couplings as discussed in [arXiv:1411.7648].
