In the flavour dependence hadrons and leptons show a mass relation, not expected in the Standard Model. This can be understood in an analysis, based on a particle Lagrangian with Maxwell term, boson-boson coupling and massless fermions…

The recent discovery by SuperKamiokande of evidence for neutrino masses requires the addition of at least seven new parameters to the Standard Model. We discuss the general theoretical schemes which require their inclusion, and point out…

Motivated by the Super-Kamiokande data, we revisit models with U(1) symmetries and discuss the origin of neutrino masses and mixings in such theories. We show that, in models with just three light neutrinos and a hierarchy of neutrino…

This paper is concerned with a way of thinking about the standard model that explains the existence of three fermion families and the value of the fine structure constant. The main idea is that the ultraviolet divergences that we encounter…

Assuming the small entries in the mass matrices are produced by fermion-scalar loops, we calculate the anomalous dipole moments of the leptons and quarks. The top quark appears in all the loops as the mass seed. When comparing the results…

We summarize the results of previous research on the constraints imposed on quark masses by the anthropically-motivated requirement that there exist stable nuclei with the right charge to form complex molecules. We also mention an upper…

We analyze the structure of quark and lepton mass matrices under the hypothesis that they are determined from a minimum principle applied to a generic potential invariant under the $\left[U(3)\right]^5\otimes {\mathcal O}(3)$ flavor…

Within the framework of unified gauge models, interactions responsible for neutrino masses can also provide mechanisms for nucleon instability. We discuss their implications concretely in the light of recent results on neutrino oscillation…

The generalized Dirac equation of the second order, describing particles with spin 1/2 and two mass states, is analyzed. The projection operators extracting states with definite energy and spin projections are obtained. The first order…

In any gauge extension of the standard model (SM) of quarks and leptons, there is a minimal set of fermion and scalar multiplets which encompasses all the particles and interactions of the SM. Included within this set, there may be a…

I briefly describe the recent construction of the first specific string D-brane models yielding just the SM massless fermion spectrum. One of the most remarkable facts predicted by these constructions is that the global symmetries of the SM…

A composite Fermion (CF) model of quasi particle has been used to describe a diquark. Considering baryons in quark-diquark configuration,the masses of the heavy light baryons like $\Lambda_{c}^{+}$, $\Sigma_{c}^{+}$, $\Xi_{c}^{0}$,…

We show that in a self-consistent preon model, where Standard Model quarks and leptons are three-body composites confined at a metacolor scale Lambda_cr ~ 10^14 GeV, both leptoquarks and the Standard Model gauge group SU(3)_c x SU(2)_L x…

Fermion mass matrices generally rotate in generation space under scale changes, which can lead to fermions of different generations transmuting into one another. The effect is examined in detail and its cross-section calculated for $\gamma…

We study $b \to s \ell_1^+ \ell_2^-$ transitions, both for the lepton flavour conserving $\ell_1=\ell_2$ and violating case $\ell_1 \neq \ell_2$, in a minimal extension of the Standard Model proposed in [1]. In this framework, the Standard…

I discuss the suppression of the lightest generation fermion mass terms in realistic superstring standard--like models in the free fermionic formulation. The suppression of the mass terms is a consequence of horizontal symmetries that arise…

A parameter free, model independent analysis of quark mass matrices is carried out. We find a representation in terms of a diagonal mass matrix for the down (up) quarks and a suitable matrix for the up (down) quarks, such that the mass…

We provide a unified description of fermion masses and mixing angles in the framework of a supersymmetric grand unified SO(10) model with anarchic Yukawa couplings of order unity. The space-time is five dimensional and the extra flat…

A previously developed lepton mass equation is extended to include the massive bosons and quarks of all three generations. The particles are modeled as closed, string-like, light front solitons whose key quantum numbers are their node…

It now appears phenomenologically that the third family of fundamental fermions may be essentially different fron the first two. Particularly the high value (174GeV?) of the top quark mass suggests a special role. In the standard model all…
