Quark Masses in the Planck Model

Authors: Bernard Riley

The mass of each up-type quark, like the mass of the electron, is simply related to the Planck Mass. Since the quarks of each generation are symmetrically arranged about prominent mass levels in the Planck Model, the mass of each down-type quark may be calculated. The quark masses of the model are 2.18 MeV (up), 4.89 MeV (down), 96.1 MeV (strange), 1.27 GeV (charm), 4.28 GeV (bottom) and 174 GeV (top). The model explains why in generations 2 and 3 the up-type quark is heavier than its down-type partner.
