Fitting the 2H, 3H, 3He, 4He Binding Energies and the Neutron minus Proton Mass Difference to Parts-Per-Million based Exclusively on the Up and Down Quark Masses

Authors: Jay R. Yablon

We report a method for expressing the 2H, 3H, 3He and 4He binding energies and the neutron minus proton mass difference, each independently and each to about parts-per-million accuracy, exclusively as a function of the up and down current quark masses. In the process, the precision with which these quark masses are predicted is improved by a factor of at least six orders of magnitude beyond the best presently-known data.
