Re: Introducing Chromotron, the leptoquark!

A model that imagines that leptons and quarks are made of smaller
particles (prions sometimes called) is not a new model, nor is a
leptoquark model which allows (and in fact predicts) lepton-quark
transitions.

You still don't know what a color singlet is.

If an electron were a color triplet, then it would interact via the
strong interaction. Color is the "charge" for QCD. There is absolutely
no experimental evidence that electrons participate in the strong
interaction, and in fact there is rather stringent experimental
evidence that it does not.
