Description
It is argued that the family replication model of composite quarks and leptons, and the fermion mass-matrix therein require that the branching ratio of the decay Ksub(L) -> e-μ+ should exceed at least 1/3 x 10-10. There is likewise a lower limit on K -> πanti μe. These serve as crucial tests of the replication idea. (orig.)
