Order in the particle zoo v3

Description

The standard model of physics classifies particles into elementary leptons and hadrons composed of quarks. In this article the existence of an alternate ordering principle will be demonstrated giving particle energies to be quantized as a function of the fine-structure constant, α. The quantization can be derived from the relationship of a point charge and a photon representation of energy. Necessary input parameters are square of the elementary charge divided by electric constant and one model specific constant. The value of α itself can be approximated numerically by the gamma functions of the integrals involved.
