Description
In the context of the local gauge group SU(3)c x SU(3)L x U(1)X, we look for possible four family models, where all the particles carry ordinary electric charges. Thirteen different anomaly-free fermion structures emerge, out of which only two are realistic. For the simplest physical structure, we calculate the charged and neutral weak currents and the tree-level Fermion masses. We also look for new sources of flavor changing neutral currents in the quark sector in connection with the upcoming experimental results at the Large Hadron Collider.
