Running mass (source code)

= Running mass
{title2=$m(t)=m(0)\exp(\int_0^t\delta(g(u))du)$}

A renormalized mass changes with the reference scale according to its mass <anomalous dimension> $\delta(g)$. In a dimensionless correlator at increasing physical energy, its effective argument includes the canonical factor $e^{-t}$. This distinguishes the <running mass> itself from its ratio to the growing energy scale.
