Abstract

A new composite model in which two types of fundamental fermions exist is proposed. These consist of light quarks qB(u,d) and new lepton quarks with fractional charges (-(2/3), (1/3)) and a lepton number L=(1/3) such that leptons are composites of three lepton quarks (3qL) while nonstrange baryons are 3qB composites. In addition, heavy quarks are obtained as qBqLq¯L composites which throw interesting light on the mechanism of heavy-quark decay modes.
