We investigate the neutron to proton decay via a Higgs mechanism in theframework of a reinterpreted Kogut-Susskind Hamiltonian on the Lie group u(3).We calculate expressions for a scalar Higgs mass, an electroweak energy scale,and vector gauge boson masses which all compare well with observed or derivedvalues. Our sole ad hoc inputs to the calculations are the classical electronradius and the weak mixing angle. Our result for the Higgs mass relative to theelectron mass involves only mathematical constants and the fine structureconstant. It yields 125.1 GeV for a fine structure constant taken as ageometric mean between it's sliding scale values at respectively the electronmass and the W vector boson mass which are both involved in the neutron decay.In passing we compare with the neutral flavour baryon spectrum and mention anapproximate calculation of the relative neutron to proton mass ratio of 0.13847percent which is promisingly close to the observed value of 0.137842 percent.We finally mention the Fermi coupling constant as a derived quantity.
