Georgi-Jarlskog mass relation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In grand unified theories of the SU(5) or SO(10) type, there is a mass relation predicted between the electron and the down quark, the muon and the strange quark and the tau lepton and the bottom quark called the Georgi-Jarlskog mass relations. The relations were formulated by Howard Georgi and Cecilia Jarlskog. Unfortunately, this mass relation only holds for one generation, which counts against those models.
