A quark mass matrix model $M_q=M_e^{1/2} O_q M_e^{1/2} $ is proposed where $M_e^{1/2}={\rm diag}(\sqrt{m_e},\sqrt{m_\mu},\sqrt{m_\tau})$ and $O_q$ is a unit matrix plus a rank one matrix. Up- and down-quark mass matrices $M_u$ and $M_d$ are…
Using a three step quantization and phenomenological formulae, we can deduce the rest masses and intrinsic quantum numbers (I, S, C, B and Q) of quarks from only one unflavored elementary quark family $\epsilon$ with S = C = B = 0 in the…

Quark masses are of great prominence in high-energy physics. In this paper, we have studied the heavy meson systems via solving the Lippmann-Schwinger equation by using the Martin potential for heavy quark masses. We have also attempted to…
Determining the absolute masses of neutrinos is of fundamental importance in particle physics, nuclear physics, and astrophysics. We conjecture that intrinsic mass relations exist between leptons and quarks. Using these relations and…
Cosmology at present provides the nominally strongest constraint on the masses of standard model neutrinos. However, this constraint extremely dependent on the nature of the dark energy component of the Universe. When the dark energy…
It is proposed to search for free quarks near their production thresholds. If the current-quark masses for u, d quarks are smaller than the pion mass, $u\bar{u}$ and $d\bar{d}$ pairs produced below the pion pair threshold, would not have…
Pole masses of quarks in the quantum chromodynamics are calculated to the two-loop order in the framework of the regularization by dimensional reduction. For the diagram with a light quark loop, the non-Euclidean asymptotic expansion is…
We study the polar quasinormal modes of spontaneously scalarized black holes in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory. In previous works we showed that a set of nodeless solutions of the fundamental branch of the model studied in [1] are stable…
