A Mass Spectrum for Leptons and Quarks
نویسندگان
چکیده
A suggestive phenomenological relation is found among the lepton and quark masses which suggests a new insight into the problem of generations and also gives a prediction for the top quark mass in agreement with the range of values which is actually expected.

Seesaw Mass Matrix Model of Quarks and Leptons with Flavor-Triplet Higgs Scalars
Suggested from the charged lepton mass formulame+mμ+mτ = 2 3 ( √ me+ √ mμ+ √ mτ ) , a seesaw mass-generation model for quarks and leptons is proposed. Fermions 10′L+1̄0 ′ L+1 ′ L are introduced in addition to the conventional quarks and leptons 5̄L + 10L of SU(5). Also, flavor-triplet Higgs scalars 5H +5̄H +1H are assumed. The charged lepton mass spectrum is understood not from the structure of th...

متن کاملPossible reason why leptons are lighter than quarks.
The minimal model of spontaneously broken leptonic colour and discrete quarklepton symmetry predicts that charged leptons have the same masses as their partner charge +2/3 quarks up to small radiative corrections. By invoking a different pattern of symmetry breaking, a similar model can be constructed with the structural feature that charged leptons have to be lighter than their partner quarks ...
متن کاملGauged Supersymmetric Generalized Nonlinear Sigma Models for Quarks and Leptons*
We consider the idea of describing quarks and leptons, and their interactions, in terms of gauged supersymmetric generalized nonlinear sigma models. It is found that the best model is the one based on the Kahler manifold E7/sU(4) X U(1)4, with an atipropriate complex structure. The isotropy representation of the manifold is sufficient for embedding three families of quarks and leptons. We as10 ...
