A prediction for |Ue3| from patterns in the charged lepton spectra

AbstractIt is shown that empirical relations between the charged lepton spectra and the quark spectra together with a bimaximal or near bimaximal neutrino mixing matrix necessarily imply that there is a contribution to |Ue3| given by θC/32≈me/2mμ≈0.052, where θC is the Cabibbo angle. This prediction could be tested in the near future reactor experiments. The charged lepton mixing also generates a less robust prediction for the angle θ23 and a small contribution to the phase δ
