New Derivation of J/Psi Particle Mass

Discrete Scale Relativity models subatomic particles as quantized Kerr-
Newman ultracompact objects.

In the following paper the masses of 27 well-known particles were
retrodicted at the 98.4% level, on average.

http://arxiv.org/ftp/astro-ph/papers/0701/0701006.pdf [see
section 4]

The relevant equation based on a Kerr solution is M = (sqrt n)(revised
Planck mass of 674.8 MeV).

Here is a demonstration for a particle NOT included in the published
paper.

J/Psi mass = 3095 MeV

Does the M = (sqrt n)(674.8 MeV) equation work for J/Psi? You betcha!

M = (sqrt 21)(674.8 MeV) = 3092.3 MeV

That's agreement at the 99.9% level.

No quarks needed. Just classical General Relativity and a little
Quantum Mechanics.


Hmmm, time for a new paradigm?
