Abstract

The mass of the bottom quark is analyzed in the context of QCD finite energy sum rules. In contrast to the conventional approach, we use a large momentum expansion of the QCD correlator including terms to order αs2(mb2/q2)6 with the upsilon resonances from e+e− annihilation data as main input. A stable result mb(mb)=(4.19±0.05) GeV for the bottom quark mass is obtained. This result agrees with the independent calculations based on the inverse moment analysis.
