Abstract:
An SO(10)×SO(8) model of grand unified theory is proposed. It can accommodate the color singlet particles with fractional charges (for example: e/2 or e/3), and the model satisfies the Dirac quantization rule with magnetic charge 1/2e. This theory predicts four generations of ordinary fermions and four generations of peculiar fermions. In particular, there exist peculiar photons which are different from ordinary photons. These could be tested in future experiments at high energy.
