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.
The precise values of the running quark and lepton masses $m^{}_f(mu)$, which are defined in the modified minimal subtraction scheme ($overline{rm MS}$) with $mu$ being the renormalization scale and the subscript $f$ referring to all the charged ferm
Assuming that the leptons and quarks other than top are massless at tree level, we show that their masses may be induced by loops involving the top quark. As a result, the generic features of the fermion mass spectrum arise from combinations of loop
Instead of right-handed neutrino singlets, the standard model is extended to include lepton triplets $(Sigma^+, Sigma^0, Sigma^-)$. Each quark and lepton family may now transform under an anomaly-free $U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry, known already for many y
We consider fermions on an extra dimensional interval. We find the boundary conditions at the ends of the interval that are consistent with the variational principle, and explain which ones arise in various physical circumstances. We apply these resu
We identify a plausible scenario based on quark-lepton symmetry which correlates long baseline oscillations with maximal mixing to sterile neutrinos. The implication for the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) is that the neutral current signal will b
