The Breaking of Subnuclear Democracy as the Origin of Flavour Mixing

Abstract

It is shown that the simplest breaking of the subnuclear democracy leads to a successful description of the mixing between the second and third family. In the lepton channel the ${\nu }_{\mu }-{\nu }_{\tau }$ oscillations are expected to be described by a mixing angle of $2.65^{\circ }$ which might be observed soon in neutrino experiments.
