Abstract
Quark masses are one of the important parameters of the Standard Model, and ¥(b¥)-quark mass has been measured at various energy scales so far, and these results agree with QCD running mass prediction. This paper reports an assessment result of ¥(b¥)-quark mass measurement in future high-energy electron-positron colliders through the ILD full detector simulation. We present prospects for the measurement of the ratio of the three-jet rates ¥(R_3^{bl}¥) as the observable to extract ¥(b¥)-quark mass and estimated dominant uncertainties. It turns out that the precision of ¥(b¥)-quark mass is 1 GeV for the ILC 250 GeV run with the luminosity of 2 ab¥(^{-1}¥). Based on this result, we also estimated the ¥(b¥)-quark mass precision for the Giga-Z option, and it is 0.12 GeV. Thus, it is ¥(¥sim¥)3 times superior to the precision of LEP and SLD measurements.
