First, we observe that the existing information on neutrino masses fits quite well to the unexplained, but apparently present regularities in the quark and charged lepton sectors. Second, we discuss several possible mass patterns, pointing out that this quite generally leads towards hierarchical neutrino mass patterns especially disfavoring the vacuum solution.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2002-08-16T12:01:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14.60.Pq", "12.15.Ff" ], "keywords": [ "absolute neutrino mass scale", "lepton mass patterns", "neutrino masses fits quite", "lepton mass hierarchies", "hierarchical neutrino mass patterns" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
