Why is the mass difference in the ud-quark-family different from the other families?

Asked by Llan (5points) December 22nd, 2007

In the first quark generation, the quark with positive electric charge has the lower mass. In the other families, the quarks carrying the positive charge are the more massive particles. Is there any reason for this?
