Description

In the SO(10) Grand Unified Theory one can arrange the fermions such that simple reflection symmetries determine the flavor mixing parameters in terms of the mass eigenvalues. I will discuss the success of such a model for the quarks. I apply the same idea to the leptons. Using the experimental values for the angles, describing the neutrino oscillations, i can calculate the neutrino masses. One prediction can soon be checked with reactor neutrino experiments.
