Summary
We propose that the leptons are quarks. Unstable baryonic quarks must also exist. A specific scheme based on the Han-Nambu model is presented. Conservation of the quantum numbers is obtained in all processes except the purely nonleptonic ones.
Riassunto
Si propone che i leptoni siano quark. Possono anche esistere quark barionici instabili. Si presenta uno schema specifico basato sul modello di Han-Nambu. Si ottiene la conservazione dei numeri quantici in tutti i processi eccetto quelli puramente non leptonici.
Резюме
Мы предполагаем, что лептоны представляют кварки. Также должны существовать нестабильные барионные кварки. Приводится конкретная схема, основанная на модели Хана-Намбу. Получается сохранение квантовых чисел во всех процессах, за исключением чисто нелептонных процессов.
