abstract

We sum up the next-to-leading logarithmic corrections to the heavy-quarkonium hyperfine splitting using the nonrelativistic renormalization group. On the basis of this result, we predict the mass of the $\eta_b$ meson to be $M(\eta_b)=9419 \pm 11 {(\rm th)} {}^{+9}_{-8} (\delta\alpha_s) MeV$. The experimental measurement of $M(\eta_b)$ with a few MeV error would be sufficient to determine $\alpha_s(M_Z)$ with an accuracy of $\pm 0.003$. The use of the nonrelativistic renormalization group is mandatory to reproduce the experimental value of the hyperfine splitting in charmonium.

    Using five lattice spacings with physical quark masses, the authors obtain Gamma(h_c->eta_c gamma)=0.604(24) MeV and the first lattice QCD estimate Gamma(h_b->eta_b gamma)=46.0(4.8) keV.
