The magnetic moment of composite leptons and quarks

  • 1. Science Research Council, Chilton (UK). Rutherford and Appleton Labs.

Description

We show that for a composite fermion of sufficiently small radius, the magnetic moment approaches the Dirac value corresponding to the overall charge and mass, regardless of the constituent values. This resolves a recently suggested difficulty in composite models of leptons and quarks. (orig.)
