Puzzle of W Leptonic Decay Branching Fractions and Gauge Model of Generation Nonuniversality
Xiao-Yuan Li, Ernest Ma
Lepton generation universality holds very well in Z decays, but appears to be violated in recent LEP data of W leptonic decay branching fractions. If this trend persists, a consist…
Grand Unification and Physics Beyond the Standard Model
Ernest Ma
Recent progress in some selected areas of grand unification and physics beyond the standard model is reviewed. Topics include gauge coupling unification, SU(5), SO(10), symmetry br…
Polygonal Derivation of the Neutrino Mass Matrix
Ernest Ma
Representations of the symmetry group D_n of the n-sided regular polygon have generic multiplication rules if n is prime. Using D_n with n=5 or greater, a particular well-known for…
Non-Abelian Discrete Family Symmetries of Leptons and Quarks
Ernest Ma
Recent progress is reviewed regarding the application of the non-Abelian symmetries S_3, D_4, and A_4 to the understanding of family structure in leptons and quarks.
Neutrinos with Z_3 symmetry and new charged-lepton interactions
Ernest Ma
An approximate Z_3 family symmetry is proposed for leptons which results in a neutrino mass matrix with sin^2 2 theta_atm = 1 and tan^2 theta_sol = 0.5, but the latter value could…
