225/-! ## QCD Mass Running (Leading Order)
226
227The QCD mass anomalous dimension governs how quark masses change with
228renormalization scale. At one loop:
229
230 m(μ₂) = m(μ₁) × (α_s(μ₂)/α_s(μ₁))^(γ₀/(2b₀))
231
232where γ₀ = 8 is the universal one-loop anomalous dimension and b₀ depends
233on the number of active flavors n_f. Flavor thresholds (at m_c, m_b, m_t)
234require matching the running across regions with different n_f.
235
236This infrastructure enables scheme-consistent quark residuals at a common
237scale μ* = 182 GeV, removing the mixed-scheme artifacts that inflate
238the sub-leading mass formula's eta parameter (Item 8). -/
