Tau lepton as one of three elementary leptons in nature, the measurement of its mass has ever been performed since its discovery. The present relative accuracy is already at the level of better than 10 to minus 4 and more effects are still…

Koide has pointed out that the mass relation $m_e + m_{\mu} + m_{\tau} = {2 \over 3}(\sqrt{m_e} + \sqrt{m_{\mu}} + \sqrt{m_{\tau}})^2 $ is consistent with the most recent measurements of the tau lepton mass. We point out that this relation…
