Résumé:

We extract (for the first time) the ratio of the gluon condensate < g^3f_{abc}G^3 >/< alpha_s G^2 > expressed in terms of the liquid instanton radius rho_c from charmonium moments sum rules by examining the effects of < alpha_s G^2 > in the determinations of both rho_c and the running MS mass m_c(m_c). Using a global analysis of selected ratios of moments at different Q^2=0, 4m_c^2 and 8m_c^2 and taking < alpha_s G^2 > from 0.06 GeV^4, where the estimate of rho_c is almost independent of < alpha_s G^2 >, we deduce: rho_c=0.98(21) GeV^{-1} which corresponds to < g^3f_{abc}G^3 > = (31+- 13) GeV^2 < alpha_s G^2 >. The value of m_c(m_c) is less affected (within the errors) by the variation of < alpha_s G^2 >, where a common solution from different moments are reached for < alpha_s G^2 > greater than 0.02 GeV^4. Using the values of < alpha_s G^2 >=0.06(2) GeV^4 from some other channels and the previous value of < g^3f_{abc}G^3 >, we deduce: m_c(m_c)=1260(18) MeV and m_b(m_b)=4173(10) MeV, where an estimate of the 4-loops contribution has been included. Our analysis indicates that the errors in the determinations of the charm quark mass without taking into account the ones of the gluon condensates have been underestimated. To that accuracy, one can deduce the running light and heavy quark masses and their ratios evaluated at M_Z, where it is remarkable to notice the approximate equalities: m_s/m_u= m_b/m_s= m_t/m_b= 51(4), which might reveal some eventual underlying novel symmetry of the quark mass matrix in some Grand Unified Theories.

Commentaires: 8 pages, 2 figures, 5 tables. Due to a bug in the program, values of m_b(m_b) in Table 5 have been changed and are in excellent agreement with the ones from Q^2-moments (arXiv:1105.2922[hep-ph]) and exponential sum rules (arXiv:1105.5070[hep-ph]) within stability criteria. These changes will be published as an erratum in PLB Journal: Phys.Lett.B693:559-566,2010
