Event details
Part 4 (seminar)
Why do we have three families of quarks and leptons in nature ? It is very fascinating if the quarks and leptons are composite states of more fundamental preons. I will show a very interesting approach based on supersymmetry to answer to the above fundamental question. You will see that exceptional groups play an important role.
