In this article, I will present the status of our calculation of the difference between the masses of the long- and short-lived neutral K mesons, $\Delta m_K$ predicted by the Standard Model. This calculation is performed on an ensemble of…
The real and imaginary parts of the $K_L-K_S$ mixing matrix receive contributions from all three charge-2/3 quarks: up, charm and top. These give both short- and long-distance contributions which are accessible through a combination of…
The two neutral kaon states in nature, the $K_L$ (long-lived) and $K_S$ (short-lived) mesons, are the two time-evolution eigenstates of the $K^0 - \overline{K^0}$ mixing system. The prediction of their mass difference $\Delta m_K$ based on…
A nearly historical account of quark mass matrix models is given, and the structure of quark mass matrices in the Standard Model is studied. For a minimal parameter basis suggested earlier, where $M_u$ is diagonal and $M_{d11}$, $M_{d13}$,…
Proceeding in our research programme on the Standard Model (SM) on a Planck lattice (PLSM) we analyse the emergence of the quark masses through a ``superconducting'' mechanism of spontaneous violation of the chiral symmetry of the Standard…
We explore a framework for the computation of quark mass ratios and CKM mixing angles based on an SU(3) family gauge symmetry. The four ratios md/mb, ms/mb, mu/mt, and mc/mt can be fit at one-loop in the family gauge interaction. The same…
We study the general dependence of mixing angles on heavy fermion masses when mass hierarchies exist among the fermions. For two generations and small Cabibbo angle, this angle is directly shown to scale like $\mu_1/m_s \pm \mu_2/m_c$,…
A review of the current status of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix (CKM) is presented. This paper is an update of the results published in [1]. The experimental constraints imposed by the measurements of \epsilon_K, V_{ub}/V_{cb},…
Present experiments in pursuit of the mass difference in the Bs-Bs(bar) system have put a lower bound on this quantity of $\Delta M_s > 14.9 ps^{-1}$ (at 95% C.L.). The same experiments also yield a local minimum in the log-likelihood…
The observed Standard Model (SM) quark/lepton mass hierarchies and the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) mixing pattern are described in an ${\rm SU}(8)$ theory through its realistic symmetry breaking pattern with three intermediate stages,…
We consider variations of coupling strengths and mass ratios in and beyond the Standard Model, in the light of various mechanisms of mass generation. In four-dimensional unified models, heavy quark and superparticle thresholds and the…
We construct a model that allows us to determine the three neutrino masses directly from the experimental mass squared differences, $\Delta_{\rm atm}$ and $\Delta_{\rm sol}$, together with the assumption that $\Lambda = \surd (1/6) = \surd…
In a recent paper a model of quark and lepton masses was proposed. Without any family symmetries almost all the qualitative and quantitative features of the quark and lepton masses and Kobayashi-Maskawa mixing angles are explained,…
We present a reanalysis of the allowed region in the $\rho - \eta \,$ plane of the CKM matrix, which follows from our present knowledge of the theoretical and experimental parameters associated with quark mixing and CP violation. Besides…
We consider variation of coupling strengths and mass ratios in and beyond the Standard Model, in the light of various mechanisms of mass generation. In four-dimensional unified models, variations in charged particle thresholds, light quark…
We report on the first complete calculation of the $K_L-K_S$ mass difference, $\Delta M_K$, using lattice QCD. The calculation is performed on a 2+1 flavor, domain wall fermion ensemble with a 330MeV pion mass and a 575 MeV kaon mass. We…
The structure of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix is analyzed from the standpoint of a composite model. A model is constructed with three families of quarks, by taking tensor products of sufficient numbers of spin-1/2…
The invariance of the standard model (SM) under the CPT transformation predicts equality of particle and antiparticle masses. This prediction is tested by measuring the mass difference between the top quark and antiquark (Delta m[t] = m[t]…
We investigate the potential (small) deviations from the unitarity of the mixing matrix that are expected to occur, because of mass splittings, in the Quantum Field Theory of non-degenerate coupled systems. We extend our previous analysis…
In the Standard Model of elementary particles, quark-mixing is expressed in terms of a 3 x 3 unitary matrix V, the so called Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. Significant unitarity checks are so far possible for the first row of this…
