Abstract: (Elsevier)
The constituent symmetry group U(6) is incorporated in the null plane quark model of mesons. We obtain the value m u =5.4 MeV, and the estimate m s =125−160 MeV for the masses of the non-strange and the strange quarks respectively. Some checks of the model in terms of meson mass formulas are given.
