B. Tatischeff and I. Brissaud of CNRS France, in "Relations between
elementary particle masses," arXiv:1005.0238 v1 [hep-ph] 3 May 2010,
have found "number theory" equations for almost all elementary
particle masses and also predict the Higgs mass and some additional
undiscovered elementary particle masses. Everything depends only on
the positive integer n (n = 1, 2, 3) of a sequence (quarks or leptons
mostly) and on the proton, pion, and neutron masses and the fine
structure constant.

The typical n factor in the equations is:

1) 2^(2(2-n)) or 2^(2(n-2)) or (n/10)^(1/2) or 2 - n or n(n+1) + 1/2
or 2 + (-1)^n or n^2 - ((n+1)/4)((-1)^n - 1).

Quarks are divided into 2 families with 3 quarks each: family 1 (u, c,
t) and family 2 (d, s, b), with respective numbering of n = 1, 2, 3 in
sequence, etc. There are both equations inside each family and
equations between families (for predicting members of the second
family from members of the first family). Mass ratios appear
typically m_(n+1)/m_n, which readers may find familiar from the
Fibonacci ratios Fn+1/Fn and their Gn analogs Gn+1/Gn, etc. of the
previous papers in this thread.
