A New Look at an Old Mass Relation
read the original abstract
New data from neutrino oscillation experiments motivate us to extend a successful mass relation for the charged leptons to the other fundamental fermions. This new universal relation requires a Dirac mass around 3 10^-2 eV for the lightest neutrino and rules out a maximal atmospheric mixing. It also suggests a specific decomposition of the CKM mixing matrix.

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

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