We show that, using the experimentally observed values of CKM and PMNS mixing matrices, all known elementary fermions can be assigned a new quantum number, the scalar spin, in a unique way. This is achieved without introduction of new degrees of freedom. The assignment implies that tau-neutrino should be an anti-Dirac spinor, while mu-tau leptons and charm-top, strange-bottom quarks form Dirac-anti-Dirac scalar spin doublets. The electron and its neutrino remain as originally described by Dirac.

  1. The Conformal Origin of the Lepton Flavor Mixing Matrix

    hep-ph 2026-07 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    Lepton mixing is claimed to follow from conformal symmetry, yielding θ12, θ13, and δ_CP = 19π/12 in radicals via an empirically exactified first-row identity.
