You scale the numbers to whatever you think works, and make arbitrary choices of parameters. You even have the case where several of your n's 'correspond' to entirely different particles. You are not doing physics, no matter how hard you've tried to convince yourself that you are. There's a reason you are posting here instead of giving lectures, publishing articles, and going to conferences.

Doesn't the Standard Model, and specifically QCD, already provide a thorough explanation for the particle masses?" I will let Richard Feynman answer that important question. There remains one especially unsatisfactory feature [of the Standard Model of particle physics]: the observed masses of the particles, m. There is no theory that adequately explains these numbers. We use the numbers in all our theories, but we do not understand them what they are, or where they come from. I believe that from a fundamental point of view, this is a very interesting and serious problem. Richard Feynman Read that quotation carefuly several times. It was written in about 1988, but there has been no improvement in the situation in spite of all the hype surrounding "string theory", supersymmetry, QCD, and any number of other hermetic gambits. This is why a retrodiction of the particle mass spectrum, if it is based on sound physics, albeit necessarily a radical departure from past failures, is so important. RLO www.amherst.edu/~rloldershaw

What's the above got to do with the empirical measurement of particle properties such as spin? |
