Generations of leptons and quarks and postoctonions algebra

Creators

Description

Comparison of the sequential occurrence of lepton and quark generations and postoctonion scheme resulting from use of Kelly-Dixon procedure is suggested. Gursey suggested to describe a set of one lepton and one coloured quark using one Dirac octonion field (''octupoles'' in short), comparing lepton and scalar part, quark coloured components and vector components. Postoctonions produced in such a way have a remarkable property: their automorphism group is one and the same G2 group, being spontaneously broken it results in identical coloured symmetry of all quarks SU(3)C
