Abstract

Global fits to the shape of the first QCD Laplace sum rule exhibiting sensitivity to pion-resonance [] parameters are performed, leading to predictions for the pion-resonance mass and decay constant. Two scenarios are considered which differ only in their treatment of the dimension-six quark condensate . The first scenario assumes an effective scale for from other sum-rule applications which is assumed to be independent of the physical value of the quark mass, while the second scenario requires self-consistency between the value of and the current algebra constraint . Predictions of the pion-resonance mass and decay constant are obtained in these two scenarios. A byproduct of this analysis is a prediction of the renormalization-group invariant quark mass .
