Models for fermion generations based on five fermionic coordinates

  • 1. Tasmania Univ., Sandy Bay (Australia). Dept. of Physics

Description

It is shown that a limited range of options for fermion families may be neatly encompassed in a spacetime augmented by five Gassmann internal coordinates when the superfields are self-dual in an SU(5) sense. Amongst the possibilities is a family of just three standard model generations. The nature of Higgs fields in this formalism and the form of possible gauge symmetries are considered. 12 refs., 4 tabs
