We analyze N-f = 2 nucleon mass data with respect to their dependence on the pion mass down to m(pi) = 157 MeV and compare it with predictions from covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory (BChPT). A novel feature of our approach is that we fit the nucleon mass data simultaneously with the directly obtained pion nucleon sigma-term. Our lattice data below m(pi) = 435 MeV is well described by O(p(4)) BChPT and we find sigma = 37(8)(6) MeV for the a-term at the physical point. Using the nucleon mass to set the scale we obtain a Sommer parameter of r(0) = 0.501(10)(11) fm. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
