Einstein coefficients
In grand unified theories of the SU(5) or SO(10) type, there is a mass relation predicted between the electron and the down quark, the muon and the strange quark and the tau lepton and the bottom quark called the Georgi–Jarlskog mass relations. The relations were formulated by Howard Georgi and Cecilia Jarlskog.[1]
At GUT scale, these are sometimes quoted as:
and sometimes as:
Symbol | Description | Renormalization scheme (point) |
Value |
---|---|---|---|
me | Electron mass | 511 keV | |
md | Down quark mass | μTemplate:Overline = 2 GeV | 4.4 MeV |
mu | Up quark mass | μ[[MSbar scheme|Template:Overline]] = 2 GeV | 1.9 MeV |
mμ | Muon mass | 105.7 MeV | |
ms | Strange quark mass | μTemplate:Overline = 2 GeV | 87 MeV |
mc | Charm quark mass | μTemplate:Overline = mc | 1.32 GeV |
mτ | Tau mass | 1.78 GeV | |
mb | Bottom quark mass | μTemplate:Overline = mb | 4.24 GeV |
mt | Top quark mass | On-shell scheme | 172.7 GeV |
