Abstract

It is shown that a simple breaking of the subnuclear democracy leads to a successful description of the mixing between the second and third family. In the lepton channel the vµ — vr oscillations are expected to be described by a mixing angle of 2.65° which might be observed soon in neutrino experiments.
