Three important QCD-related aspects of the $\tau$ and $\mu$ dynamics are reviewed: the determination of the strong coupling from the hadronic tau decay width, leading to the updated value $\alpha_s(m_\tau^2) = 0.331 \pm 0.013$; the…
We point out that, in the left-right symmetric model of weak interaction, if $\nu_\tau$ mass is in the keV to MeV range, there is a strong correlation between rare decays such as $\tau \rightarrow 3 \mu, \tau \rightarrow 3 e$ and the…
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…
We have long ago derived a theoretical relation between the mass of the electron and the fine structure constant \cite{Nottale1994}, which writes to lowest order $\alpha \ln (m_{\mathbb{P}}/m_e) = 3/8$ (where $m_{\mathbb{P}}$ is the Planck…
By assuming the existence of (quasi)-linear Regge trajectories for heavy quarkonia in the low energy region, we derive a new, sixth power, meson mass relation which shows good agreement with experiment for both charmed and beauty mesons.…
We investigate what could be learned about the absolute scale of neutrino masses from comparisons among the patterns within quark and lepton mass hierarchies. First, we observe that the existing information on neutrino masses fits quite…
We measure the mass of the tau lepton to be 1775.1+-1.6(stat)+-1.0(syst.) MeV using tau pairs from Z0 decays. To test CPT invariance we compare the masses of the positively and negatively charged tau leptons. The relative mass difference is…
Despite the enormous achievements, the Standard model of Particle physics can not be consider as complete theory of fundamental interactions. Among other things, it can not describe the gravitational interaction and it depends on 19…
A model is presented that fits the quark and lepton masses and mixings wherein five dimensionless parameters and a phase account for fifteen dimensionless observables. Among these are the Wolfenstein parameters $\rho$ and $\eta$, the…
As an attempt to give an unified description of quark and lepton mass matrices M_f, the following mass matrix form is proposed: the form of the mass matrices are invariant under a cyclic permutation (f_1 \to f_2, f_2 \to f_3, f_3 \to f_1)…
The mass matrices of quarks have a simple structure if expressed in powers of the small parameter \sigma=(m_c/m_t)^{1/2}. If there is a close relation between quarks and leptons, one would expect similar structures for the lepton matrices…
The possibility to explain the CMB measurement of the baryon asymmetry with leptogenesis results in a stringent bound on the neutrino masses such that [(m_1)^2+(m_2)^2+(m_3)^2]^(1/2) < 0.30 eV. We discuss the implications of such a bound…
We propose that charged leptons are the `baryons' of the gauge dynamics subject to a SU(2)$_{e}$$\timesSU(2)_{\mu}\timesSU(2)_{\tau}$ symmetry. The `mesons' of this theory are neutral and thus candidates for dark matter. There is, in…
We study a supersymmetric E6 grand unified model in which the SU(5) 5^* components are twisted in the third generation 27. Supplementing the adjoint Higgs field to a model analyzed previously, we calculate the mass matrices for the up and…
We assume that all quark and lepton mass matrices have upper triangular form. Using all available experimental data on quark and lepton masses and mixing angles we make a fit in which we determine mass matrices elements. There are too many…
Any of neutrinos similarly to a kind of charged lepton has a non-zero mass responsible as well as for its Coulomb behavior. Such a neutrino can possess both electric charge and vector dipole moment. Their form factors appear, for example,…
We provide an explicit structure of the charged lepton mass matrix which is 2-3 symmetric except for a single breaking of this symmetry by the muon mass. We identify a flavor symmetric limit for the mass matrices where the first generation…
In this paper we consider a plausible scenario with conserved lepton number \textbf{$L=L_{e}-L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$} within the framework of the exact solution of a particular 3-3-1 gauge model. We discuss what are the consequences of conserving…
Using recent data on neutrino oscillations, we argue that a hierarchical solution for neutrino masses in a three-family context is possible, and that the masses of the tau and mu neutrinos are very nearly determined within that possibility.…
Koide's mass formula is an empirical relation among the charged lepton masses which holds with a striking precision. We present a model of charged lepton sector within an effective field theory with U(3) \times SU(2) family gauge symmetry,…
