Matter as composed of quarks and leptons is a three family’s affair. In the order of their discovery, the first family is composed of electron, its neutrino, and the tricolor (RGB) of up and down quarks. The second family is composed of muons, its neutrino, and the tricolor (RGB) of charm and strange quarks. The third family is composed of tauon, its neutrino, and the tricolor (RGB) of top and bottom quarks. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lepton

Are we in effect talking about an implied forth as well?

Particles physicists have been searching and theorizing for it. But failed. This might be because of the energy regimes required for detecting these particles.

Maybe there is a forth if you will it to be then it will become?


this is the second reply to this post.one appears to have been deleted!

Hopefully this one will stay long enough for Antonio to read It?

The 4th could possibly be described by a Hadamard (symmetric and square) matrix of rank greater than 1. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(mathematics)

That sounds a little odd? Greater than one you say!

Not for rank of matrices. Ranks are like layers of an onion. There is only one onion but it has many layers. If you peel it closely your tears would start to pour and your nose wouled start to run, losing your ability to see or to smell.

[mkirkpatrick]

You certainly seem to know your onions Antonio?

Whats the difference between a wild cosmic ray,and a tame one?
