SL_q(3) Fields
Abstract
Description
The q-field theories are constructed by substituting quantum groups for the usual Lie groups. In earlier papers this construction was carried out for the quantum group SU_q(2). Here the investigation is extended to SL_q(3). The resulting theory describes two sectors, one sector lying close to the standard theory and accessible by perturbation theory, while the second sector describes particles that should be difficult to detect and become invisible in the q=1 limit. In this note we discuss these hypothetical particles: three quark-like spinor particles coupled to three gluon-like vector particles.
