Abstract

A general mass formula, based on the principle of quantisation of rest mass, gives accurate mass ratios for many of the known elementary particles, predicting the muon mass to within 1 part in 10,000 of the experimental value and indicates the possibility for the existence of a number of particles which have not yet been identified experimentally.
