Reliable values of quark and lepton masses are important for model building at a fundamental energy scale, such as the Fermi scale M_Z \approx 91.2 GeV and the would-be GUT scale \Lambda_GUT \sim 2 \times 10^16 GeV. Using the latest data given by the Particle Data Group, we update the running quark and charged-lepton masses at a number of interesting energy scales below and above M_Z. In particular, we take into account the possible new physics scale (\mu \sim 1 TeV) to be explored by the LHC and the typical seesaw scales (\mu \sim 10^9 GeV and \mu \sim 10^12 GeV) which might be relevant to the generation of neutrino masses. For illustration, the running masses of three light Majorana neutrinos are also calculated. Our up-to-date table of running fermion masses are expected to be very useful for the study of flavor dynamics at various energy scales.

  1. A minimization theorem for the Koide ratio and its Standard Model calibration

    hep-ph 2026-05 conditional novelty 7.0

    A theorem establishes that the one-particle extension of any Koide-ratio mass set reaches a unique minimum Qmin = Q0/(1+Q0) at m* = [(sum mi)/(sum sqrt(mi))]^2, with the lepton-plus-charm case landing 6 ppm above the ...

  2. A minimization theorem for the Koide ratio and its Standard Model calibration

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Extending any positive-mass set by one particle minimizes the Koide ratio to Q0/(1+Q0) at m* = [(sum mi)/(sum sqrt(mi))]^2; adding the charm mass to leptons yields a value only 6 ppm above the ideal 2/5.

  3. Predictions of Modular Symmetry Fixed Points on Neutrino Masses, Mixing, and Leptogenesis

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Fixed points of modular symmetry in a type III seesaw model produce viable neutrino phenomenology and the observed baryon asymmetry.
