Empirical Neutrino Mass Matrix Related to Up-Quark Masses

Abstract

Based on an approach to quark and lepton masses, where the mass spectra originate in vacuum expectation values of U(3) flavor nonet (gauge singlet) scalars, neutrino masses and mixing are investigated. As an offshoot of this approach, it is found that an empirical neutrino mass matrix which is described in terms of the up-quark and charged lepton masses can accommodate to a nearly tribimaximal mixing.
