Quark Mass Matrix with a Structure of a Rank One Matrix Plus a Unit Matrix

A quark mass matrix model $M_q=M_e^{1/2} O_q M_e^{1/2}$ is proposed where $M_e^{1/2}={\rm diag}(\sqrt{m_e},\sqrt{m_\mu},\sqrt{m_\tau})$ and $O_q$ is a unit matrix plus a rank one matrix. Up- and down-quark mass matrices $M_u$ and $M_d$ are described in terms of charged lepton masses and additional three parameters (one in $M_u$ and two in $M_d$). The model can predict reasonable quark mass ratios (not only $m_u/m_c$, $m_c/m_t$, $m_d/m_s$ and $m_s/m_b$, but also $m_u/m_d$) and Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements.Comment: 8 pages, Latex, no figure

Top Quark Mass Enhancement in a Seesaw-Type Quark Mass Matrix

We investigate the implications of a seesaw type mass matrix, i.e., $M_f\simeq m_L M_F^{-1} m_R$, for quarks and leptons $f$ under the assumption that the matrices $m_L$ and $m_R$ are common to all flavors (up-/down- and quark-/lepton- sectors) and the matrices $M_F$ characterizing the heavy fermion sectors have the form [(unit matrix) + $b_f$ (a democratic matrix)] where $b_f$ is a flavor parameter. We find that by adjusting the complex parameter $b_f$, the model can provide that $m_t\gg m_b$ while at the same time keeping $m_u\sim m_d$ without assuming any parameter with hierarchically different values between $M_U$ and $M_D$. The model with three adjustable parameters under the ``maximal" top quark mass enhancement can give reasonable values of five quark mass ratios and four KM matrix parameters.Comment: 22 pages, Latex, 5 postscript figures available upon reques

The Hadronic Tau Decay Signature of a Heavy Charged Higgs Boson at LHC

The hadronic tau decay channel offers by far the best signature for heavy charged Higgs boson search at the LHC in the large $\tan\beta$ region. By exploiting the distinct polarization of the tau and its large transverse mass, along with the accompanying missing--$p_T$, one can probe for a charged Higgs boson up to a mass of about 600 GeV in an essentially background-free environment. The transverse mass distribution of the tau jet also provides a fairly unambiguous estimate of the charged Higgs boson mass.Comment: 11 pages, latex, including 3 figure

Analytical Expressions of Masses and Mixings in a Democratic Seesaw Mass Matrix Model

On the basis of a seesaw-type mass matrix model $M_f\simeq m_L M_F^{-1} m_R$ for quarks and leptons $f$, analytical expressions of the masses and mixings of the fermions $f$ are investigated. Here, the matrices $m_L$ and $m_R$ are common to all $f$ (up- and down-; quarks and leptons), and the matrix $M_F$ characterizing the heavy fermion sector has the form [(unit matrix)+ (democratic-type matrix)]. An application to the quark sectors is discussed.Comment: 27 pages, Latex, three PostScript figure
