Texture of fermion mass matrices in partially unified theories
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate the texture of fermion mass matrices in theories with partial unification (for example SU(2)L × SU(2)R × SU(4)c) at a scale ∼ 10 12 GeV. Starting with the low energy values of the masses and the mixing angles, we find only two viable textures with atmost four texture zeros. One of these corresponds to a somewhat modified Fritzsch textures. A theoretical derivataion of these textures leads to new interesting relations among the masses and the mixing angles.

The Fermion Mass Problem *
I review the 'puzzles' associated with the fermion mass matrices and describe some recent attempts to resolve them, at least partially. Models which attempt to explain the observed mass hierarchy as arising from ra-diative corrections are discussed. I then scrutinize possible inter–relations among quark and lepton masses and the mixing angles in the context of grand unified theories. It is argu...
متن کاملNaturalness and the Neutrino Matrix
The observed pattern of neutrino mass splittings and mixing angles indicates that their family structure is significantly different from that of the charged fermions. We investigate the implications of these data for the fermion mass matrices in grand unified theories with a type-I seesaw mechanism. We show that, with simple assumptions, naturalness leads to a strongly hierarchical Majorana mas...
متن کاملSUPPRESSION OF d = 5 OPERATOR INDUCED PROTON DECAY IN SUPERSYMMETRIC GRAND UNIFIED THEORIES
The proton decay in supersymmetric (SUSY) Grand Unified Theories (GUTs), where the special mechanism provides the natural suppression of the dimension 5 (d = 5) operators, was studied. Due to this mechanism, d = 5 operator induced proton decay takes place only through the mixing of light generation fermions with those from third generation and crucially depends on the structure of fermion mass ...
متن کاملThe Problem of Quark and Lepton Masses
Different approaches to the fermion mass problem are reviewed. We illustrate these approaches by summarizing recent developments in models of quark and lepton mass matrices. Dynamical calculations of the top quark mass are discussed, based on (a) infrared quasi-fixed points of the renormalisation group equations, and (b) the multiple point criticality principle in the pure Standard Model. We al...
متن کاملUnique Mass Texture for Quarks and Leptons
Texture specific quark mass matrices which are hermitian and hierarchical are examined in detail . In the case of texture 6 zeros matrices, out of sixteen possibilities examined by us, none is able to fit the low energy data (LED), for example, |Vus|= 0.2196 ± 0.0023, |Vcb|= 0.0395 ± 0.0017, |ub Vcb |= 0.08 ± 0.02, |Vtd| lies in the range 0.004 0.013 (PDG). Similarly none of the 32 texture 5 ze...
